4-4 LNT Programmer’s Manual
Defining the Code 93 Options Tag (Optional)
Use the Options tag to define Code 93-specific information.
Valid values include: a 32-bit unsigned decimal number.
It contains the following attributes: density and narrowbar.
Syntax <Options density=”value” and narrowbar=”value” />
density Bar code density. Options: 3, 4, 5, 7, and 10 as shown below. The default is
7

narrowbar Use the density table above. Using a non-standard value may produce
unreadable bar codes. Define in Pixels.
Example <Options density=”5” />
Creates a Code 93 bar code with a density of 5 and does not specify a narrow bar value.
Defining the Code 128 Options Tag (Optional)
Use the Options tag to define Code 128-specific information.
Valid values include: a 32-bit unsigned decimal number.
It contains the following attributes: density and narrowbar.
Syntax <Options density=”value” and narrowbar=”value” />
density Bar code density. Options: 4, 6, 8, and 20 as shown below. The default is 8.
