Chapter 3 Bar Codes
UCC/EAN-128 uses the same bar code and character set as Code 128.
However, in UCC/EAN-128, the Function 1 character FNC1 immediately
follows the start code. The FNC1 character has been reserved exclusively for
UCC/EAN-128.
The UCC/EAN-128 data structure requires an Application Identifier (AI) at the
beginning of bar code data. Each AI determines the format and length of the
data which follows. Refer to Table 17 for more detail.
