Signature Capture Code
527
Dimensions
The size of the signature capture box is determined by the height and separation of the start and stop
patterns. The line width of the signature capture box is insignificant.
The thinnest element width, referred to here as X, is nominally 10 mils (1 mil = 0.0254 mm). Select this as
an exact multiple of the pixel pitch of the printer used. For example, when using a 203 DPI (dots-per-inch)
printer and printing 2 dots per module, the resulting X dimension is 9.85 mils.
Data Format
The decoder output is formatted according to Table 31 on page 532. Zebra decoders allow different user
options to output or inhibit barcode type. Selecting "Symbol ID" as the barcode type for output identifies the
CapCode with letter "i".
