Tab codes in lines 40 and 60 cause a jump to the next tab.
If horizontal tabs have not been set, a Horizontal Tab code is conside red a
space, adding .1 inch between the bar codes. Total separation is .6 inchwhen
the Horizontal Tab is added to the quiet zones.
Line 10 clears all previously set horizontal tabs for this example.
