Data Matrix
Barcode type: Datamatrix
Length: 2D - Barcode - up to 2335 ASCII characters
Valid characters: alpha numeric
all 128 ASCII characters
The Data Matrix symbol is a 2 Dimensional symbology used to encode large
amounts of text and data securely and inexpensively. Up to about 2335 ASCII
characters can be encoded in a Data Matrix symbol. We recommend to limit this
to maximum 800 characters, as the most 2D barcode readers have problems to
decode symbols which use a higher amount of data.
The cells of a Data Matrix code are made up of square modules that encode
letters, numbers, text and actual bytes of data, and encode just about anything
including extended characters, unicode characters and photos.

B - Barcode field definition
[:name;] = field name
x = x - coordinate
y = y - coordinate
r = Rotation 0, 90, 180 and 270 degrees
type = Barcode type (DATAMATRIX)
[+options] Following options are available:
+WSarea = white space area
+RECT = forces the printer to print this barcode as rectangle
+VERIFYn = Verify the barcode data. (optional barcode reader required )
+GOODBADn = Same function as +VERIFYn without checking the content.
dotsize = dot size in millimeters or inches
text = Barcode data
