About barcode and OCR fonts This chapter provides descriptions for types of barcode, character code and samples of font usage, etc. for models equipped with the Barcode / OCR font option. The content of this chapter assumes the reader has a basic understanding of barcodes and barcode standards.
Types of barcode / OCR fonts The internal code for the barcode fonts is coded in the barcode symbologies listed below. In general, assign a barcode font and data that is going to be expressed based on the ASCII character set. However, be aware that the internal code for fonts may at times be encoded using code that is different from ASCII code.
Postnet (ZIP) Postnet (ZIP) is a barcode represented as postal code for the United States (ZIP code). The check digit is modulus 10. Postnet font consists of numerals (ASCII) contained within Framebars (*: Hex2A and }: Hex7C). Codabar (NW-7) Codabar (NW-7) is a barcode represented in numerals and symbols ($, +, -, ., /.). Most standards do not define a check digit.
