A physical object is provided that comprises a base medium, such as a
paper sheet, and multiple memory tags embedded in it or attached to it.
At least one of the memory tags stores location data concerning a
location relationship between the object and one or more of the tags. The
location data can comprise, for example, tag-location data giving the
location in or on the object of the or each tag concerned, or
area-of-responsibility data indicating the area of the object's surface
for which the or each tag concerned has responsibility in terms of
storing related data items such as print data items. Apparatus is
provided for writing the location data; apparatus is also provided for
subsequently using and displaying the location data particularly for
facilitating access to data items stored by the tags.
