Bar Codes
Optional parameter which affects printing of the
human readable data field. The data field will print
automatically in the OCR–B font (default) unless the
PDF–suppress command is specified in the FONT
parameter. The human-readable data field can be
printed above or below the bar code symbol. This
parameter is not allowed if a null data field is
specified.
LOC
Optional parameter to identify the location of the
printable data field. The default value is B, locating the
human readable data below the bar code. A locates the
printable data field above bar code. To compensate for
printing the 0.1–inch high data, the height of the bar
code body is reduced 0.1 inch.
FONT
Optional parameter to select the font for the human
readable data field. The default value, N, selects the
normal ASCII 10 cpi font. Enter O to select the
OCR–A 10 cpi font; enter X to select the OCR–B type
font; enter S to suppress printing the data field and the
trailing lower portions of the EAN bar code.
STOP
Ends the Bar Code command while the IGP/PGL
continues in the Create Form Mode. Enter STOP. If
STOP is not entered, an error message results.
