Example: The following ZPL II code will generate the bar code printed at left:
^XA^BY6^BFN,8,3
^FDABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUV^FS
^XZ
To encode data into the Micro-PDF417 bar code, follow the procedure below.
Encoding Data into a Micro-PDF417 Bar Code
1. Determine the type of data that will be encoded (e.g., ASCII characters,
numbers, 8-bit data, or a combination).
2. Determine the maximum amount of data that will be encoded within the bar
code (e.g., number of ASCII characters, quantity of numbers, or quantity of
8-bit data characters).
3. Determine the percentage of check digits that will be used within the bar
code. The higher percentage of check digits that are used, the more resistant
the bar code will be to damage – however, the size of the bar code will
increase.
4. Use the Micro-PDF417 Mode Table on the next page with the information
gathered from the questions above to select the mode of the bar code.
