Creating Character Strings of Barcodes/2-Dimensional Symbols
Refer to the following to create character strings of barcodes/2-dimensional symbols.
UPC-A
• Specify a character string of 11 to 12 digits.
• Although the first digit is the number system character, the bar code font is not checked.
• For 11 digits: The check digit is automatically added.
• For 12 digits: The 12th digit is processed as the check digit but the barcode font is not verified.
If the composite is checked, the 12th digit is ignored and the check digit is automatically added.
UPC-E
• Specify a character string of six to eight or 11 to 12 digits.
• For six digits: The check digit is automatically added.
• For seven digits: Digits two to seven are data digits and the check digit is automatically added.
• For eight digits: Digits two to seven are data digits and the eighth digit is processed as the check
digit but the barcode font is not verified.
If the composite is checked, the eighth digit is ignored and the check digit is automatically
added.
• For 11 digits: The check digit is automatically added.
• For 12 digits: The 12th digit is processed as the check digit but the barcode font is not verified.
If the composite is checked, the 12th digit is ignored and the check digit is automatically added.
• For seven digits or more: Specify 0 (zero) because the first digit is processed as the number
system digit.
JAN13(EAN)
• Specify a character string of 12 to 13 digits.
• For 12 digits: The check digit is automatically added.
• For 13 digits: The 13th digit is processed as the check digit but the barcode font is not verified.
