Defines the starting column of the bar code. Enter a

 

value ranging from column 1 to one less than the

 

width of the form. Character column or dot column

83), or use the CP.DP format (page 26).

(D)The printable character (delimiter) identifying the start and finish of the data field. Enter any printable character other than a slash (/), the SFCC, or a character used within the data. The same character must be used at both ends of the data field, but it is not printed with the data.

Contains the bar code characters. A null data field

 

(no characters) is permitted. The data field can

 

contain any of the characters listed in Table 9

 

except the SFCC. The length of the data field is

 

variable; however, the maximum length is usually

 

limited to 32 characters to minimize potential

 

reading errors.

PDF

Optional parameter to enable printing of the human

 

readable data field. Enter PDF to print the data

 

field. If the parameter is not used, the human

 

readable data will not print. This parameter is not

LOC

Optional parameter to identify the location of the

 

printable data field. The default value is B, locating

 

the human readable data below the bar code. A

height of the bar code body is reduced 0.1 inch.

readable data field. Enter O to select OCR-A font;
