"DATA"=ASCII data or	Any combination of data strings, time fields (TT), date fields
Binary data bytes	(TD), variables and/or counters (the latter two within forms
	only) that resolve to a valid string of characters.

Within literal strings all ASCII characters 0–255 dec. (00-FF hex.) are allowed. Quotes (ASCII 34d) and backslashes (ASCII 92d) must be uniquely handled.

The backslash (\) character designates the following character is a literal and will encode into the data field. Refer to the following examples:

To Print	Enter into data field
"	\"
"Company"	\"Company\"
\	\\
\code\	\\code\\
ø	\↵

Within forms, further limitations include that a NULL (ASCII 0) character may not appear within bar code DATA and entry limitations do not provide for a way to enter linefeed characters into variables.

The programmer should rely on the symbology’s specification to insure format compliance and proper implementation. See the AIM web site for specifications at: http://www.aimglobal.org/
