Use the Options tag to define Codabar-specific information.

Valid values include: a 32-bit unsigned decimal number.

It contains the following attributes: density, narrowbar, widebar, narrowspace, widespace, and
interchargap.

Syntax

widespace=”value” interchargap=”value” />

density

Bar code density. Options: 2 to 9 as shown belo w. The default is 8.

Use the density table above. Using a non-standard value may produce

unreadable bar codes. Define in Pixels.

interchargap

The inter character gap b etween t wo character repr esentations. This is usually
defined the same as narrowspace. De fine in Pi xel s.

Example

Creates a Codabar bar code with a density of 4 and an intercharacter gap of 1.

Use the Options tag to define Code 16K-specific information.

Valid values include: a 32-bit unsigned decimal number.

It contains the following attributes: density and subbarheight.

Syntax

density

subbarheight

The height of each ro w of bars. Define in Pi xels.

Example

Creates a Code 16K bar code with a density of 6 and does not specify a subbarheight.
