Abstract

See full text

A CD-ROM is provided with an area for forming a character/graphic pattern. The character/graphic pattern is formed in such a way that data, which generate on the CD-ROM two sorts of pit patterns having average reflectances different from each other to a perceptible extent, are respectively recorded inside and outside the character/graphic pattern. Unless an illegal copy disc is produced by duplicating the legal original disc of the CD-ROM at a very high precision, the character/graphic pattern of the copy disc is invisibly deformed by the discrepancy between the arrangements of the pit patterns of the copy disc and the original disc.
