Use the Options tag to define Code 39-specific information.
Valid values include: a 32-bit unsigned decimal number.
It contains the following attributes: density, narrowbar, widebar, narrowspace, widespace,
interchargap, and mod43cd.
Syntax
widespace=”value” interchargap=”value” mod43cd=”value” />
density Bar code density. Options: 1 to 7, 11, 12, and 20 shown belo w. The defaul t is
7.

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. Define in Pi xel s.
mod43cd Enable Mod43 check digit? Options:
0 Disable
1 Enable (E xtended Code 3 9)
Example
Creates a Code 39 bar code with a density of 6 and the bar code prints as an Extended Code
39 bar code.
