34、Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom. Introduction The technology of bar coding is based on the recognition of patterns encoded in bars and spaces of defined dimensions. There are various methods of encoding information in bar code form, known as symbologi

35、es, and the rules defining the translation of characters into bar and space patterns and other essential features are known as the symbology specif ication. Symbologies are of two broad categories: 0 A traditional simple format of linear symbologies, where data is encoded as a single string from lef

36、t to right. A more sophisticated format of two-dimensional symbologies where data is encoded in an arrangement of rows and columns. PDF41 7 is a two-dimensional symbology. Manufacturers of bar code equipment and users of bar code technology require publicly available standard symbology specification

37、s to which they can refer when developing equipment and application standards. It is the intent and understanding of CEN that the symbology presented in this standard is entirely in the public domain and free of all user restrictions, licences and fees.

The symbol characters in a given cluster conform to particular structural rules which are used in decoding

48、retation: A procedure within some symbologies, including PDF41 7 to replace the default interpretation with another interpretation in a reliable manner. The interpretation intended prior to producing the symbol can be retrieved after decoding the scanned symbol to recreate the data message in its or

49、iginal format. 3.1.5 Extended Channel Model: A system for encoding and transmitting both data message bytes and control information about the message. A decoder, complying to this model, operates in Extended Channel Mode. The control information is communicated using Extended Channel Interpretation (ECI) escape sequences. 3.1.6 Function Codeword: A codeword in a symbology which initiates a particular operation within the symbology, for example to switch between data encoding sets, to invoke a compaction scheme,
