l
Auto: Automatically detect the data content and encodes using the most
appropriate method. This is the default option.
l
Error Correction Level: Enter the error correction level for the built-in error
correction method based on Reed-Solomon algorithms. The error correction level is
adjustable between level 0 (just error detection, without correction) and level 8
(maximum error correction). Recommended error correction levels are between
level 2 and 5, but the optimal value depends on the amount of data, printing quality
of the PDF417 symbol and decoding capabilities.
l
Rows: A PDF417 bar code can have anywhere from 3 to 90 rows.
l
Columns: The number of data columns can vary from 1 to 30.
l
Text: Enter the text used to generate the Barcode.
l
Add button: Click to display a list of variable data that could be used for
generating the Barcode.
This includes metadata fields which must previously have been added in the
Metadata options, likely at the Document Tags level (see Metadata Options), as well
as some information fields.
l
Condition: Enter the condition which determines whether or not the Barcode will be
added to the document at print time. For details on how to create a conditional, see "How
to Set Conditionals" on page๎˜ƒ1200.
l
Add button: Click to display a list of metadata fields, information fields to add, or
common expressions to the condition.
QR Code Settings
QR๎˜ƒCode (Quick Response Code) is a 2D Barcode format that supports alphanumeric,
numeric, byte/binary, and Kanji (Japanese-Chinese character)๎˜ƒdata.
Note
To create dynamic barcodes, Metadata options must first have been set (see "Metadata
options" on page๎˜ƒ1116).
Metadata fields are required to create the association between the dynamic data used in
the print run and the barcode.
Use the following options to configure the output Barcode settings:
