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. The default value, N, selects the
normal ASCII 10 cpi font. Enter O to select the
OCR–A 10 cpi font; enter X to select the OCR–B type
font.
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.
