Appendix F

Bar Code Summary Data

Barcode fonts have alpha names (left column, below). Uppercase alpha names will print barcodes with human-readable interpretations, if supported. Lowercase alpha names will print barcodes only. Place the ID in field b of the Format Record header to cause the printer to encode the data field using the associated barcode symbology; see Appendix G for details. See Table F-2 for default values.
