8.3 Bar Code Human Readable Text
Certain bar codes require human readable text and/or extended bars to conform to
specifications. This is accomplished by using specially created TCI’s, which add the human
readable text and extended bars. This section will provide the necessary information to
successfully add these items. This should not be confused with simply making all bar codes
human readable. For bar codes that do not require extended bars, simply access the data
that the bar code is using with a second field that generates a text representation of the data
and insert in the desired position.
