The example above prints a normal, security level one, PDF-417 bar code with a 1:2
aspect ratio and best-fit rows and columns. The (bolded) bar code’s data stream
1z0000000150100F1000000PDF417<CR> decodes as follows:
Example Data Explanation
F
1-character specifying a normal or truncated bar code (T to truncate, F for
normal).
1
1-digit security level ranging from 0 to 8.
00
2-digit aspect ratio specified as a fraction, with the first digit being the
numerator and the second digit the denominator. Use “00” for the default
ratio of 1:2. Valid range is from “00” to “99.”
00
2-digit number specifying the number of rows requested. Use “00” to let
the printer find the best fit. Valid range is from “03” to “90”. Row values
less than 3 are set to 3, while row values greater than 90 are set to 90.
00
2-digit number specifying the number of columns requested. Use “00” to
let the printer find the best fit. Valid range is from “01” to “30”. Column
values greater than 30 are set to 30.
PDF417
The data stream to be encoded.
<CR>
Terminates the data stream.
Format Record header fields c and d should both be zero.
