R6. nar_space

Additional dot width of the narrow bar code space.
(Code 39 and Codabar only). Range: 1 to 99.

R7. wide_space

Additional dot width of the wide bar code space.
(Code 39 and Codabar only). Range: 1 to 99.

Creates a custom bar code density with a narrow element of 4 dots, a wide
element of 8 dots, a gap of 4 dots, 4 additional dot widths for the narrow bar

You can define a security level and choose whether or not to truncate a
PDF417 bar code. Higher security levels add data to a bar code, improving
scan reliability. Some damaged bar codes may still be scannable if the
security level is high enough. You can use this option to create standard
PDF417 bar codes or use the truncated option to create a narrower bar
code. This option can appear only once per PDF417 field, in any order,
following the bar code field.

As the security level is increased, so is the size of your PDF417 bar code.
For each level increased, the bar code will double in size.
