PDF417 Set Length 2
This feature specifies one of the barcode lengths for PDF417 Length Control. Length 2 is the 
maximum label length if in Variable Length Mod
e, or the second fixed length if in Fixed 
Length Mode. Length includes the barcode’s check, data, and full-ASCII shift characters. 
The length does not include start/stop characters. Characters can be set from 01 to 2,710 
characters (pad with zeroes) in increments of 01. Any value greater than 2,710 will be 
considered to be 2,710.
