Encodes a full 14-digit EAN.UCC item identification
within a linear symbol that can be scanned omni-
directionally.
The encodable character set is 0 through 9.
The maximum numeric data capacity is the
application identifier plus 14-digit numeric item
identification.
Error detection is mod 79 checksum.
Encodes a 14-digit EAN.UCC item identification with
indicator digits of zero or one within a linear symbol.
The encodable character set is 0 through 9.
The maximum numeric data capacity for is the
application identifier plus 14-digit numeric item
identification.
Data must begin with indicator 0 or 1. Any higher
number results in discarded data.
Error detection is mod 89 checksum.
Encodes EAN.UCC item identification plus
supplementary AI element strings.
The encodable character is a subset of ISO 646,
consisting of upper and lower case letters, digits and
20 selected punctuation characters, plus the special
function character FNC1, (#).
The maximum numeric data capacity is 74 numeric or
41 alphanumeric.
Error detection is mod 211 checksum.
