Definition
A document layout that is viewed with the document's long axis in
a horizontal orientation.
A device that contains a liquid crystal between two pieces of
polarized film through which reflected or ambient light can pass.
When a current is applied, the liquid's polarity changes and blocks
the passage of the light resulting in an opaque area of the display.
The areas are arrayed to form characters.
A semiconductor that emits light when a current is applied.
A generic reference to anything onto which the Printer can
transfer an image including cards, Ribbon and film.
The Coercivity value of magnetic media between 250 - 600 Oe
(ISO 7811-2). Fargo's Low Coercivity encodes at 300 Oe.
The system abbreviation for a PC's parallel Printer port.
The process of orienting successive magnetic bits to produce a
serial data string.
An area of the card with an applied or impregnated ferrous
material that can hold encoded data through a series of
prescribed polarity changes.
An area of a magnetic strip running the length of the card, with a
given width and position, constitutes a track. This is the area
dedicated to one data string, restricted to specific rules of format.
ISO standards specify three Magnetic Tracks on the back of a
card. The JIS standard specifies one track on the front.
A process to confirm proper magnetic encoding. After encoding,
the information is read off back and compared to the intended
string.
