Note: If bar code image corruption occurs when excessive amounts of data are encoded,
then the amount of encoded data should be reduced, or the user should change to
a more capable bar code symbology.
4-State postal widths
The BCE creates 4-State postal images that may not be exactly the same as HP BDP or the LXK
BCC. The number of bars and spaces are the same, the proper ascenders and descenders are
used, and the bar code scans correctly with a verifier. A change in the BCE to address this minor
difference may be implemented in a later version.
Note: Exact size compatibility of certain 4-State bar code image sizes with previous
Lexmark bar code options is not assured. However, the proper order and
placement of the bars and spaces is the same, and the bar code will also scan
correctly. If the bar code image is too wide and does not fit within the available
space, then users should either resize their form to allow placement of current and
previous bar code images, or slightly reduce the size of the image using the
available PCL or PostScript controls. If the datastream controls are adjusted for a
smaller width, then the corresponding image should be smaller on both current and
previous bar code products, and the image should fit within the available space.
HRT widths and heights
The BCE uses the FreeType font renderer with custom SuchyMIPS-generated fonts to produce the
HRT (human-readable text) on bar codes. In certain cases, the HRT may be larger or smaller, or
may not be positioned horizontally or vertically exactly as on the HP BDP or the LXK BCC. However,
the HRT should be readable, legible, and approximately the same as the target platforms.
