Chapter 5 Barcodes 5-10 Two-dimensional Barcodes PDF 417 is a two-dimensional stacked barcode symbology capable of encoding over a kilobyte of data per label. This is important for applications where a barcode must be more than merely an identifier, an index to reference a database. The portable data file approach is well suited to appli cations where it is impractical to store item information in a database or wh ere the database is not accessible when and where the items barcode is read. Because a PDF417 symbol can store so much data, item data such as the content of a shipping manifest or equipment maintenance history can be carried on the item, without requiring access to a remote database. Encoding data into a PDF417 barcode is a two-step process. First, data is converted into codeword values of 0-928, which represent the data. This is high-level encoding. Then the values are physically represented by particular bar/space patterns, which is low-level encoding . Decoding is the reverse process. In addition, PDF417 is an error-correcting symbology designed for real-world applica- tions where portions of labels can get destroye d in handling. It performs error correction by making calculations, if necessary, to recons truct undecoded or corrupted portions of the symbol. PDF417 Symbol Description At first glance, a PDF417 symb ol looks like a set of stacked barcodes. When we look closer to analyze how the symbol is put to gether, there are several key elements. These are rows , start patterns , stop patterns , codewords , and modules , whose definitions are explained below. module The narrowest width of a bar or space in the barcode. All bars or spaces are multiples (up to six times) of this width. The nominal unit of measure. codeword A single group of bars and spaces (or elements ) representing one or more numbers, let- ters, or other symbols (i.e., codeword values for the data to be encoded). Each PDF417 codeword contains four bars and four spaces, for a total of 17 module widths. Each code- word starts with a bar and ends with a space.

5-11 start pattern A unique pattern of light and dark elements which indicates the leftmost part of a bar- code label. stop pattern A unique pattern of light and dark elements which indicates the rightmost part of a bar- code label. row A lateral set of elements made up of a start pattern, codewords, and a stop pattern. Each PDF417 symbol must have at least 3 rows. See figure below. In each row, between left and right row indicat ors, there may be from 1 to 30 data code- words. Collectively, among all rows, these codewords form data columns. Overall Symbol Structure Any PDF417 symbol is made up of at least 3 rows, and at most 90 rows. The minimum number of codewords in a row is 3; this includes the left row indicator codeword, 1 data codeword, and the right row indicator. Every symbol contains 1 codeword (the first data codeword in row 0) indicating the total number of data codewords within the symbol, and at least 2 error-detection codewords.

Chapter 5 Barcodes 5-12 Printing a Two-dimensional Barcode XBAR, XBCP, XBUF, and ENDB commands support two-dimensional barcode printing. Each command does the following to put data together for printing a barcode. Functions of XBCP The mode parameter in XBCP command format identifies the various functions as listed below. These commands are detailed in the PRESCRIBE Commands Command Reference . XBAR Prints a two-dimensional barcode from the given data string. Must be followed by an ENDB command. XBCP Specifies various options for the barcode to be printed using XBAR depending on the mode following the command (0 through 19). See Macro PDF417 on page 14. XBUF Defines a buffer name for a data input for XBAR command. ENDB Terminates a XBAR command sequence.

5-13 Positioning the Barcodes The following commands are positioning commands the PRESCRIBE language pro- vides. These commands are useful and sometimes essential for proper positioning of the barcodes onto a medium such as label. More detailed discussion on these (and some other) positioning commands can be found in the PRESCRIBE Commands Command Reference . By default the cursor is located at the top le ft corner of the barcode and stays there after printing is done. Limitations of Two-dimensional Barcode For Macro PDF417, which transparently distributes information among a number of PDF417 symbols, the above storage limits are increased to more than one million bytes in Binary/ASCII Plus mode and morethan 2.5 million bytes in EXC mode. MAP Moves the cursor to a position relative to the top and left margins. MRP Moves the cursor from the current to a specified relative position. MZP Moves the cursor to a position relati ve to the top and left edge limits of the page. UNIT Sets the unit of measurement us ed in the PRESCRIBE commands including the above. The initial un it is inches. The other units are related to inches as: 1 inch=2.54 centimeters=72 points=300 or 600 dots (depending on the printing system model).

Chapter 5 Barcodes 5-14 Macro PDF417 Macro PDF417 provides a powerful mechanism for creating a distributed representation of files too large to be presented by a single PDF417 barcode. Macro PDF417 barcodes differ from ordinary PDF417 barcodes in that they contain additional control options which are added by modes 10 through 19 of th e XBCP command. This allows a reader to make use of this information to correctly reconstruct and verify the file, independent of the barcode scanning order. Note The terminology PRESCRIBE macro and macro PDF are not the same. Refer to the PRESCRIBE Commands Command Reference for the PRESCRIBE macro commands (MCRO, ENDM, etc.). The following modes of XBCP are used for Macro PDF417 to represent additional con- trol options for XBAR. Note that implementation of these parameters are optional except XBCP 17 and XBCP 18. Creating a Macro PDF 417 Representation A Macro PDF417 creation begins with giving fileid using XBCP 17 for the ensuing Macro PDF417 sequences. Each one XBAR command sequence is needed for each divided barcode which is succeeded by a XBCP 18 statement that defines a separate block index for each barcode. The block index is needed to ensure that the divided bar- codes are reconstructed in the correct order as the whole file when the barcodes are read. The basic command sequence for Macro PDF417 is as follows. ... XBCP 17, ’ fileid’; Gives the same file ID to all distributed barcodes. MZP x1, y1; Position the first barcode at (x1, y1). XBCP 18, 0; Block index for the first barcode. XBAR; data_string;ENDB; Encode and print the first divided barcode. MZP x2, y2; Position the second barcode at (x2, y2). XBCP 18, 1; Assign block index 1 to the second barcode. XBAR; data_string;ENDB; Encode and print the second divided barcode. MZP x3, y3; Position the second barcode at (x3, y3). XBCP 18, 2; Assign block index 2 to the second barcode. ... The largest allowed block index is 99,998. Thus, up to 99,999 Macro PDF417 barcodes may comprise the distributed representation of a data file.
