Postal Symbologies
POSTNET Status
PLANET Status
Usage: POSTNET is used by the United States Postal Service to direct mail. The
ZIP Code or ZIP+4 Code is encoded in the symbol. Data is encoded in
half-height and full-height bars, making POSTNET a “2-state” symbology.
The delivery point (usually the last two digits of the address or post office
box number) is also typically encoded in POSTNET symbols.
Definition: If U.S. Post and POSTNET Status are both enabled, the imager will
decode POSTNET symbols.

Usage: PLANET (Postal Alphanumeric Encoding Technique) is a symbology
used by the United States Postal Service to track and identify items during
delivery. Each PLANET symbol is either 12 or 14 digits long, and encodes
data in half-height and full-height bars, making PLANET a “2-state” symbology.
The symbol always starts and ends with a full-height bar, or “guard rail”,
and each individual digit is represented by a set of five bars in which two of
the bars are always short.
Definition: If U.S. Post and PLANET Status are both enabled, the imager will decode
PLANET symbols.
