machine readable - Computer Definition
Data in a form that can be read by the computer, which includes magnetic disks, optical discs, magnetic tapes and, years ago, punch cards. Printed fonts and barcodes that can be scanned and recognized by a computing device are also machine readable. Although ordinary images may be recognizable by a computer, they are not considered machine readable, unless they were altered in some manner explicitly for the computer.
