Chapter 3 Bar Codes
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
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
allowed if a null data field is specified.
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
locates the printable data field above bar code. To
compensate for printing the 0.1-inch high data, the
height of the bar code body is reduced 0.1 inch.
FONT
Optional parameter to select the font for the human
readable data field. Enter O to select OCR-A font;
enter X to select OCR-B font; enter N to select 10
cpi; enter P to select 12 cpi; enter Q to select 13
cpi; enter R to select 15 cpi; enter T to select 17 cpi;
enter V to select 20 cpi.
STOP Ends the Bar Code command while the IGP/PGL
continues in the Create Form Mode. Enter STOP. If
STOP is not entered, an error message results.
