CODE 93
Code 93 is a alphanumeric, self-checking, variable-length bar code. Every
character is composed of nine elements arranged in three bars with adjacent
spaces.
A character is defined by five black bars and four spaces; three elements are
wide, six are narrow. There is a leading and trailing quiet zone, a start and stop
character, a termination bar and two check characters. The check characters
are verified but filtered from the output.
Code 93 is an extended version of Code 39 - see above - that allows to encode
the full 128 ASCII character set. The “full” ASCII set refers to all characters up
to character 128 in the ASCII table set, the “special” and accentuated symbols
from 128 onwards such as ç and ó are not included. Code 93 is also slightly more
compact than Code 39.
This standard is used in an alphanumeric context as you can define the com-
plete 128 ASCII character set.
