1. A method of processing a set comprising color coded first and second characters for optical character recognition, wherein each of said first and second characters have unique geometric shapes formed by a first color with said first character geometric shape being different from said second character geometric shape, so as to define said first character relative to said second character when visually identified by a human, said first character geometric shape having one or more pixels of a second color, said second character geometric shape having one or more pixels of a third color that is different than said second color, said second and third color pixels being distinguishable by a color scanner, comprising the steps of: scanning said second color pixels and said third color pixels; and processing said scanned second color and said scanned third color.
