Data Matrix is a 2D matrix symbology made up of square modules
arranged within a perimeter finder pattern. The finder pattern is a
perimeter to the data region and is one module wide. Two adjacent sides
are solid dark lines. These lines are used to define physical size, orientation,
and symbol distortion. Intermec supports these two versions of Data
Matrix: ECC-100 and ECC-200. Use ECC-200 for new applications.
