Bar Code Definition

The sequence used to define a horizontal bar code is
^BNxccc...c^G
^B
N
x
ccc...c
^G
The width of a defined bar code is predetermined by the definition of the bar code type. The width of all
bars and spaces is automatically set.
Example:
The following sequence defines a Code 39 LOGMAR bar code of standard density. The characters
"12345" are encoded in the bar code.
^BNd12345^G^-
Example:
The same character data is represented below in a low density LOGMAR bar code.
