An object bearing a two-dimensional visible image on an image field of a non-planar and curved object surface in at least one dimension also bears an encodement of encoded information recorded in a symbology of a material that is visible or invisible to the eye and over a substantial portion of the image field. The encodement includes curved encodement portions due to the curvature of the non-planar image field. The symbology of the encodement is adapted to be imaged as a planar symbology image by a planar imager that is disposed in use generally normal to and at a predetermined distance from a central point of the two-dimensional visible image. The recorded symbology is adjusted from point to point in the image field during recording of the encodement by an encodement recording system to compensate for distortion of the symbology introduced by imaging the curved symbology portions as the planar symbology image. In an encodement reader system, the encodement is captured by the planar imager and decoded and then reproduced as data or sound or visual information.

A method of receiving and processing calling party information including caller ID information over a communication line, the method comprising: receiving the calling party information which comes through the communication line; providing a first memory area for storing certain of the calling party information received through the communication line; providing a second memory area for storing specific calling party information indicative of calling party information not to be stored in the first memory area; and determining whether the calling party information received through the communication line is coincident with calling party information stored in the first memory area, and if so then storing incoming call date and time relating to the calling party information, but if not then determining whether the calling party information received through the communication line is coincident with calling party information stored in the second storing area and if so not storing the received calling party information in the first storing area.
