B - Barcode Micro PDF 417
Barcode type: Micro PDF 417
Length: 2D - Code
Valid characters: ASCII characters ( more than 1000 bytes )
Micro PDF 417 is a multi-row symbology based on PDF 417 and designed for applications requiring a
greater area efficiency but lower data capacity than PDF417.Micro PDF 417 has a fixed level of error
correction.
MicroPDF417 provides for three encoding modes: Text Byte and Numeric compaction. Text is for
general text Numeric for encoding data consisting only of digits and Byte to allow for the first 127
ASCII characters but with a reduced level of efficiency. Four symbol widths are permitted each
specifying the number of data columns (1 – 4). Within each symbol width a variable number of rows
provide for a maximum data capacity of:
Text compaction mode 0: 250 characters (2 data characters per codeword)
Byte compaction mode 1: 150 characters (1.2 data characters per codeword)
Numeric compaction mode 2: 366 characters (2.93 data characters per codeword)
The Level parameter for MicroPDF barcodes set the number of data columns within the barcode
which may be 1 – 4.
