This barcode supports the full ASCII character set based on the 3 alphabets used in the Code128 barcode (see below). The
switch between alphabets is done automatically. Special characters in the A alphabet are called with their ASCII value using
the following syntax: ^nnn (such as ^010 for LineFeed).
A minimum of 3 characters is required in this barcode. The maximum string length for this barcode varies depending on the
control characters used in the code. Bar width is set using millimeters and corresponds to the minimum barcode width.
Code 11
The following characters are valid for this barcode:
l Digits: 0 to 9.
l Symbol: - (hyphen).
A checksum is optional, but should be added to ensure data reliability. When the Checksum option is selected, the required
checksum digits are added automatically.
l For data with fewer than 10 characters, a single checksum digit is used.
l For data with 10 characters or more, two checksum digits are used.

This 2D barcode can currently only be used in documents that will be printed using either the Optimized Postscript or Windows
Printing mode (printer centric mode will be added in a future release).
This barcode supports the full ASCII character set based on the 3 alphabets used in the Code128 barcode (see below). A max-
imum of 5 characters per row over 16 rows is permitted. If the first 4 characters in the data are numeric, a 'SwitchC' character
is automatically added before the data. Special characters within the data can be used to switch alphabets in the same way as
with the Code 128 barcode.
The selected barcode mode determines the starting codeset and leading character:
l Automatic: The codeset and leading character are selected automatically.
l Mode 0: Selects codeset A.
l Mode 1: Selects codeset B.
l Mode 2: Selects codeset C.
l Mode 3: Selects codeset B and sets the leading character to’Fnc1’.
l Mode 4: Selects codeset C and sets the leading character to’Fnc1’.
l Mode 5: Selects codeset C and sets the leading character to’Shift B’.
l Mode 6: Selects codeset C and sets the leading characters to two successive’Shift B’ characters.
Bar width is set using millimeters and corresponds to the minimum barcode width.
Code 39
The following characters are valid for this barcode:
l Digits: 0 to 9.
l Upper case letters: A to Z.
l Symbols: space, - (hyphen), $(dollar), / (slash), + (plus),% (percent), * (star),. (period).
To go beyond the 44 basic characters listed above, you may use extended ASCII characters (granted that scanners are pro-
grammed for this, otherwise extended characters will simply be read as basic characters).
To use extended characters, use the encoding listed in the following table:
