Signature Capture

Parameter # 5Dh
A signature capture bar code is a special-purpose symbology which delineates a signature capture area in a
document with a machine-readable format. The recognition pattern is variable so it can optionally provide an index
to various signatures. The region inside the bar code pattern is considered the signature capture area. See
Appendix F, Signature Capture Code

Output File Format

Decoding a signature capture bar code de-skews the signature image and converts the image to a BMP, JPEG, or
