PDF 417 is a multi-row, continuous, variable length symbology which has high data capacity. Each symbol has between 3
and 90 rows, with each row containing a start pattern, a left row indicator, 1 to 30 data characters, a right row indicator and
a stop pattern. The number and length of the rows are selectable, which allows the aspect ratio to be adjusted to particular
labeling applications. There are no separator bars between rows.
Each character has four bars and four spaces within 17 modules, and is assigned a value between 0 and 928. For this
symbology, it is common to refer to these character values as "code words."
There are three mutually exclusive sets of symbol patterns, or clusters, each having 929 distinct patterns. Because different
clusters are used for adjacent rows, it is possible for the decoder to tell if the scanning path is crossing row boundaries
without the use of separator bars.
pixels per minimum unit, default 3, minimum 2, maximum 6 (value a applies
to parameters b, c, d)
X undercut, default 0, can be set 0 to a-1
Y undercut, default 0, can be set 0 to a-1
separator height, default a, can be set a to a*2
segment width, used only by GS1 DataBar Expanded, default 22, must be
even number 2 to 22
line height, used only by UCC128, default 25, can be set 1 to 500
Description:
The ratio of bar height to symbol length.
Number of rows in the matrix of code words.
Number of columns in the matrix of code words.
Width of a single module in dots.
Height of the code word in dots.
