CODABAR RATIONALIZED

Image
 What is a Codeabar barcode? Codabar is a linear barcode symbology developed in 1972 by Pitney Bowes Corp. It and its variants are also known as Codeabar, Ames Code, NW-7, Monarch, Code 2 of 7, Rationalized Codabar, ANSI/AIM BC3-1995 or USD-4. What is a Rationalized Codabar? That is, characters with 2 wide elements use a 3:1 ratio, while characters with 3 wide elements use a 2:1 ratio, so all characters are 10 narrow elements wide (plus the inter-character space makes 11). "Rationalized codabar" uses a fixed ratio and allows the character widths to vary. What is Codabar used for? Codabar is also applied to the test tube for blood test (specimen) in order to confirm the individual ID. This page introduces the composition and industrial applications of CODE 39 and Codabar codes. The “Barcode Information & Tips” site offers information on the standards, basic principles, and reading know-how related to barcodes and 2D codes. What is the difference between Code 39 and Codabar...

ITF-14

What is an ITF-14 barcode? ITF-14 is the GS1 System’s only use of Interleaved 2 of 5 and it is only used to encode the GTIN as a 14 digit number. It is commonly used on shipping boxes and containers. The minimum recommended bar height for an ITF-14 Barcode is 32mm (1.25″) when used in General Distribution Scanning environments (automated scanning). What is a GTIN-14 bar code? ITF-14 is a 14-digit bar code that uses the “Interleaved 2 of 5” symbology (I2of5, or ITF). The GTIN-14 data can also be conveyed in other GS1 barcode data carriers, such as a GS1-128 barcode. ITF-14 bar code symbols include bearer bars, which are surrounding bars that protect the bar code image. How do I print ITF-14 bar code symbols on a corrugated carton? If the ITF-14 is printed directly on a corrugated carton it must be surrounded by bearer bars. For ITF-14 bar code symbols printed on a label, only horizontal bearer bars along the top and bottom are necessary. The following illustration displays example image...

PZN

Image
  What is a PZN barcode? The text under the barcode consists of the string "PZN", followed by the actual number ("PZN" is not encoded into the symbol). When encoding a PZN, Code 39 is used without a check digit as the PZN already contains a Modulo 11 check sum. Historically, the PZN encoded seven digits. What is PZN (Pharma-Zentral-Nummer)? PZN (Pharma-Zentral-Nummer) is used for distribution of pharmaceutical / health care products in Germany. The specification of this application is maintained at Informationsstelle für Arzneispezialitäten GmbH (IFA). The value to encode length is fixed to 6 digits (for PZN7) or 7 digits (for PZN8) plus 1 digit checksum. What does PZN stand for? PZN (Pharma-Zentral-Nummer) is a code for medicine identification in Germany and maybe other countries. In Germany it's issued by the Informationsstelle für Arzneispezialitäten GmbH, Beethovenstr. 51-53, Frankfurt am Main, Germany. The PZN is based on Code39. The last digit is a check d...
