Chapter 3 Bar Codes
b. Replace
n
with a number ranging from 1
through 512 to identify the bar code field. The
SR
and
SC
parameters specify the exact
location of the bar code field identified by
n
.
c. The length of the data field need not be
specified, since it is fixed at 12 digits, plus any
add-on data.
d. The information for the data field is entered
dynamically during the Execute Form mode.
(Refer to “Execute Form: Dynamic Bar Code
Data” on page 63.) Do not use the
data field
parameter to enter data when the BF
n
parameters are used. However, refer to the
data field
description for available characters.
DARK Optional parameter to produce darker bar codes.
Enter DARK. Refer to “Dark Printing” on page 28
for more information.
SR
Defines the starting row for the bar code. Enter a
value ranging from row 1 to one less than the
length of the form. Character row or dot row is
specified based on the Scale command (page 83),
or use the CP.DP format (page 26).
SC
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
is specified based on the Scale command (page
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.
data field
Enter the characters of the bar code data, restricted
to exactly 12 digits. If the 2- or 5-digit add-on data
option is used, include this data at the end of the
data field. The characters available for the data
field are 0 through 9 (30 through 39 hex,
respectively). The first character is interpreted as
the number system character.
The left side of the data field (or the lower side on
vertically-oriented symbols) can be encoded in
either format A or format B as determined by the
value of the number system character. (A bar code
character is not produced for the number system
character.) The number system character is
derived from the left side data field encoding. The
right side of the data field (or the upper side on
vertically-oriented symbols) and check digit are
