Up to 25 alphanumeric serial number characters to be 
encoded in the MicroPDF417 symbol. This symbol is fixed 
at four columns. The number of rows is determined by the 
amount of data, as follows:

The link flag is the character “T” in Code 39 without a start/stop indicator. The flag 
location is based on the ECI code location, length, and height. The location of the 
MicroPDF417 symbol is based on the location of ECI bar code. The symbol’s module 
width and height are fixed at the default. The following example prints a TLC39 bar 
code:
