Format:
O-STR P N
O-String always applies to the original data. It contains two parameters. The first is position
parameter (P) that specifies the start output position in the original data. Parameter N tells how
many characters will be included beginning from P.
Example:
Original data is:
Barcode
Then
O-Str 4 4
Gives output as
code
Note:
-- N can be '
' for all remaining characters from P.
-- If P greater than the length of original data, the O-String will be skipped.
-- If N greater than the number of remaining characters counting from P, the remaining
characters are included as valid.
Examples

If the original data is Code 39 and content is "AA", output "ABC Company", and otherwise
