A Data Matrix barcode can store up to 2335 alphanumeric characters. Within these borders are rows and columns of cells encoding information. Every Data Matrix is composed of two solid adjacent borders in an "L" shape and two other borders consisting of alternating dark and light modules. Code 93 is a compressed version of Code 39 and was designed to complement Code 39.ĭata Matrix is a two-dimensional matrix barcode consisting of black and white modules arranged in either a square or rectangular pattern. It is named Code 93 because every character is constructed from nine elements arranged into three bars with their adjacent spaces. Three of the elements are wide and six are narrow.Ĭode 93 is a variable length bar code that encodes 47 characters. Three different start characters are used to select one of three character sets.Ĭode 39, also referred to as Code 3 of 9, is an alphanumeric, self-checking, variable length barcode that uses five black bars and four spaces to define a character. Each bar or space is one, two, three, or four modules wide with the total number of modules representing bars an even number and the total number of modules representing a space an odd number. Each character is represented by three bars and three spaces totaling 11 modules.
BARCODE TYPES FULL
Codabar is useful for encoding dollar and mathematical figures because a decimal point, plus sign, and minus sign can be encoded.Ĭode 128 is an alphanumeric, very high-density, compact, variable length barcode scheme that can encode the full 128 ASCII character set.

It is used primarily for numeric data, but also encodes six special characters. The symbol is built on a square grid with a bulls-eye pattern at its center.Ĭodabar is a self-checking, variable length barcode that can encode 16 data characters. The feature for barcode recognition is offered by several ABBYY products.Īztec is a high-density two-dimensional matrix style bar code symbology that can encode up to 3832 digits, 3067 alphanumeric characters, or 1914 bytes of data.

ABBYY technology is able to recognise a large variety of different barcodes.
