A portable terminal unit of tablet configuration contains an optical reader for scanning two-dimensional information on a target area and generating an image therefrom on a sensor oriented substantially perpendicularly to an optical axis of the reader. The unit includes a laser scanner, such as an oscillating laser diode, and a reflected laser light sensor arranged for projecting a visible laser beam on the target area and detecting reflected light therefrom to determine spacing of the unit from the target area. As the unit is spaced close-in to the target area, the laser beam, as registered on the target area as a linear mark, is used to read a linear bar code in the target area. As the unit is space non-close-in to the target area, the laser beam is extinguished and the optical reader is used to read two-dimensional information from the target area.
