Chapter 1: Overview CHAPTER OVERVIEW Topics covered in this chapter are: Introduction Barcode Standards How to Install Barcodes Printer Requirements Distribution Files Preparing the Printer for Barcodes Barcodes 7
8 OVERVIEW Introduction Introduction Create!form enables you to integrate barcoding systems with your application. In most cases no change to your application will be necessary. Barcode systems originated in the 1930s but were not used in earnest until the early 1970s. A universal barcode system for general use was not introduced until the early 1980s. The main reason barcodes have become more popular recently is because more sophisticated equipment, in particular laser printers and hand held laser scanners, have been developed. Barcode symbology (its alphabet) is designed to meet specific market requirements and many different kinds of barcodes have carved a niche for themselves in particular industries. Static and variable barcodes objects can be inserted into forms with Create!form Designer. 8 Barcodes
OVERVIEW Barcode Standards 9 Barcode Standards A variety of barcode standards are available. Your choice of barcode standard will be based on the standards used in your industry. You should consult your industry associations for information on the barcode standard your industry has adopted. Create!form Designer supports the following standards: Code 3 of 9 USS-128 PDF 417 EAN-8 EAN-13 UCC/EAN-128 Interleaved 2 of 5 Postnet MaxiCode UPC Barcodes 9
10 OVERVIEW How to Install Barcodes How to Install Barcodes Barcode dictionaries for each of the above standards are automatically installed when you install the Create!form Designer. In the event that barcodes have been removed from Create!form Designer they may be re-installed by copying each of the *.BAR files from the \Utilities\Barcodes\bar directory on the installation CD into the \<install path>\temp directory, where <install path> is the directory into which you installed Create!form. When Create!form Designer is next run, the barcodes will be added automatically. 10 Barcodes
OVERVIEW Printer Requirements 11 Printer Requirements Any PostScript printer can be used to print barcodes provided it has sufficient memory. Refer to Chapter 2, Standards, for the memory requirements specific to your barcode. A PostScript Level 2+ printer is recommended for printing custom forms designed in the Create!form Designer. Barcodes 11
12 OVERVIEW Distribution Files Distribution Files There are two types of files installed for use with barcodes: PostScript dictionary files PostScript printer fonts PostScript Dictionary Files For every barcode standard there is a PostScript dictionary file. This file is transferred to your Windows print server or printer when a form project containing barcodes is transferred. By default, the dictionary files are installed to the following directory: <install dir>\systemresource\barcode PostScript Printer Fonts The Universal Product Code UPC barcode as well as the EAN-8 and EAN-13 barcodes make use of the font CLSOCRB.FNT. This font is used by Create!form Designer and should be stored both on your PC, Windows print server and printer. This font is transferred to your Windows print server or printer when the form project containing barcodes is transferred. By default, the FNT files are copied to the following directory: <install dir>\systemresource\font 12 Barcodes
OVERVIEW Preparing the Printer for Barcodes 13 Preparing the Printer for Barcodes Transferring a form project containing barcodes to the Windows print server or printer will automatically load the required barcode dictionaries and fonts. Barcodes 13

Chapter 2: Barcode Standards CHAPTER BARCODE STANDARDS Topics covered in this chapter are: Code 3 of 9 PDF 417 USS-128 EAN-8 and EAN-13 UCC/EAN-128 Interleaved 2 of 5 Postnet UPC ISS MaxiCode Barcodes 15
16 BARCODE STANDARDS Code 3 of 9 Code 3 of 9 Encoding Standard: Uniform Symbology Specification There are a number of variations or densities for Code 3 of 9 (Uniform Symbology Specification). For example, CODE 39 [3.00] is a barcode name that appears in the barcode list box of the Barcode Information dialog. The density in characters per inch appears in brackets. There are 12 densities available ranging from 9.4 to 0.7. Each barcode sequence begins and ends with an asterisk * and an optional check digit. When calculating the density you require, remember that these characters are added to the characters you input. You do not need to change your application programs as these will be added automatically. Create!form Designer provides an option to automatically calculate the check digit for you. This check digit is not its only checking facility. The design of the barcode characters makes it a naturally self checking code. The check digit option is provided as an extended checking facility. You should consult your industry association on whether you should be using the check digit option. It is normally not used. Standard Code 3 of 9 supports only a subset of the ASCII characters. These are: 0 to 9, A to Z, dash, period, space, dollar, slash, plus and percentage. Code 3 of 9 can be extended to support the full ASCII character set by encoding an ASCII character outside the above range to two characters in the range. Memory Requirements: 18k 16 Barcodes

20 BARCODE STANDARDS PDF 417 PDF 417 The PDF 417 barcode standard provides a 2-dimensional barcode allowing up to 2000 characters to be represented in a single barcode (the maximum number of characters is dependent upon the density of the barcode). Each PDF 417 barcode is comprised of start and stop indicators which surround the barcode data. These indicators extend the full height of the barcode. The actual size of the barcode as printed is dependent upon the amount of data it represents - the more data, the bigger the barcode. Both the length and width of the barcode will be adjusted to accommodate the data. PDF 417 uses an automatic error correction process and sets the appropriate level according to the input data. This cannot be changed by the user. PDF 417 supports the full ASCII character set, including all control codes. If a control code appears as data for the barcode it will, by default, trigger the control code event (such as 10 to indicate a line feed, 13 to trigger a carriage return, and so on). To prevent control code characters triggering events when read and to ensure the data is rendered as required, the control code character must be entered in the format #!10!#. This six-character format will be output as the single-character data value when the barcode is rendered. Memory Requirements: 153k Dictionary File for PDF 417 PDF417: PostScript dictionary for PDF 417 The following table lists the available denisities for the PDF 417 barcode when printed from Create!form Designer.

BARCODE STANDARDS ISS MaxiCode 33 ISS MaxiCode Encoding Standard: International Symbology Specification-formerly UPScode ISS MaxiCode is a two-dimensional barcode symbology introduced by UPS in 1992. The code is able to encode approximately 100 characters of data in an area of one square inch. Within this small space are two MaxiCode components: black and white hexagons that store information, and a target-like central pattern that allows the symbol to be easily located at hight speeds. MaxiCode is most useful for sorting and tracking cargo and transport packages. Extensive built-in error correction capability means MaxiCode also offers extremely reliable performance which provides for the recovery of symbol information from labels that are damaged. With full ASCII suport and the ability to chain several MaxiCodes together, MaxiCode is a uniquely flexible coding system. The MaxiCode barcode is always of a fixed size, containing a fixed number of hexagonal modules and allows for a primary and a secondary message. There are 5 variations or modes for MaxiCode barcodes. For example, MaxiCode (Mode 3) is a barcode aname that appears in the barcode list box of the Barcode information dialog. The mode of the standard appears in brackets. The following details the differences between each of the MaxiCode modes: Mode 2: Designed for use within the transport industry. The destination address and class of service (as defined by the carrier) is encoded. A Mode 2 barcode has a numeric postal code only. Mode 3: Also designed for use within the transport industry, this mode encodes the destination address and the class of service (as defined by the carrier). A Mode 3 barcode may contain an alphanumeric barcode. Mode 4: Mode 4 indicates that the barcode employs Enhanced Error Correction (EEC) in the primary message and Standard Error Correction (SEC) for the secondary message. Mode 5: Mode 5 indicates that the barcode employs Enhanced Error Correction (EEC) for both the primary and secondary message. Mode 6: Mode 6 indicates that the barcode contains instructions for programming the reader system, and that the Standard Error Correction (SEC) is used for the secondary message. When a Mode 6 symbol is read no data is transmitted. Memory Requirements: 23k Barcodes 33
