Signature Capture
Parameter # 5Dh
A signature capture bar code is a special-purpose symbology which delineates a signature capture area in a
document with a machine-readable format. The recognition pattern is variable so it can optionally provide an index
to various signatures. The region inside the bar code pattern is considered the signature capture area.
Output File Format
Decoding a signature capture bar code de-skews the signature image and converts the image to a BMP, JPEG, or
TIFF file format. The output data includes the file descriptor followed by the formatted signature image.
To enable or disable Signature Capture, scan the appropriate bar code below.

NOTE DS3407-DP and DS3407-HD digital scanners cannot typically decode signature capture bar codes
because the scanner’s field of view is tall and narrow. In this case, to decode signature capture:
• For DP scanners, rotate the scanner 90
o
to accommodate the signature capture bar code, or
disable DPM via DPM Scanning on page 5-7.
• For HD scanners, select Full Field of View via Presentation Mode Field of View on page 5-8.
