OCR decoder supports either format. Also, according to the ISBN specification, the hyphens in the
ISBN string may be replaced by spaces. The OCR decoder supports this format as well.
There is a new ISBN format that will be in effect as of January 1, 2007. It adds an additional 4
characters to the original ISBN number:
ISBN 978-0-571-08989-5
The ISBN template supports this format along with the original. All the comments associated with the
original ISBN format discussed above apply here as well. The one exception it the checksum is now a
Mod 10 checksum and as a result, the checksum can now only be in the range from 0 – 9 and does not
take the value ‘X’ anymore.
12.5.3 Price Field Internal Template
The Price Field is used in a number of applications including book pricing. The format of the field is as
follows:
C1234 P5678E
The field begins with a ‘C’ and ends with an ‘E’. The first part of the Price Field is a ‘C’ followed by
four numeric digits. The second half begins with a currency character. The above example shows the
letter ‘P’ but the Price Field template allows the following additional characters:
$€£¥
Following the currency character, a numeric grouping of 3, 4, 5 or 6 digits is followed by a terminating
letter ‘E’. The template supports both OCR-A and OCR-B fonts.
The following examples will also be recognized by the OCR decoder Price Field internal template:
C6712 $801E
C0217 €4399E
C0823 ¥31559E
C0331 £706213E
