The sequence of numbers of 65 through 70 are the decimal ASCII values for the upper case letters A
through F. To use the defined group, we use the Defined Group (10) control code followed by the group
ID. Each sequence of 10,1 above occupies a single character position in the OCR text to be read. The
remainder of the example above include the Template Start (1) control code at the beginning followed
by the OCR-B font designator (2). Finally, the template is ended with the End of Template (0) control
code.
12.4.5 Define Group End (4)
The Define Group End control code is used to terminate a Defined Group. A Define Group End must
always be preceded by a Define Group Start and conversely, a Define Group Start must always be
followed by a Define Group End.
12.4.6 Wildcard: Numeric (5)
The Numeric Wildcard control code may be used anywhere a single ASCII character code may be used
and indicates that the current text character can be any of the 10 numeric digits.
12.4.7 Wildcard: Alpha (6)
The Alpha Wildcard control code may be used anywhere a single ASCII character code may be used
and indicates that the current text character can be any of the 26 upper case alphabetic letters.
12.4.8 Wildcard: Alphanumeric (7)
The Alphanumeric Wildcard control code may be used anywhere a single ASCII character code may be
used and indicates that the current text character can be any of the 26 upper case alphabetic letters or any
of the 10 numeric digits.
12.4.9 Wildcard: Any (8)
The Any Wildcard control code may be used anywhere a single ASCII character code may be used and
indicates that the current text character can be any valid character that the designated font for this
template supports. For OCR-A and OCR-B this includes the 26 upper case letters, the 10 numeric digits,
and the 16 punctuation characters. It includes the space character as well.
12.4.10 Defined Group (10)
The Defined Group control code uses a previously defined group. The byte immediately following the
Defined Group control code must match a previously defined group. This group occupies one character
position in the template.
12.4.11 In Line Group Start (11)
The In Line Group Start defines a one time instance of a group that occupies one character position in
the template. Use this control code for unique groups of characters that occur only once. One could use a
Define Group Start control code instead. The inclusion of both types is done for the convenience of the
user.
