14、2002(E) iv ISO/IEC 2002 All rights reserved Foreword ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) and IEC (the International Electrotechnical Commission) form the specialized system for worldwide standardization. National bodies that are members of ISO or IEC participate in the developme
15、nt of International Standards through technical committees established by the respective organization to deal with particular fields of technical activity. ISO and IEC technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international organizations, governmental and non-governmental,
16、 in liaison with ISO and IEC, also take part in the work. In the field of information technology, ISO and IEC have established a joint technical committee, ISO/IEC JTC 1. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 3. The main task of the jo
17、int technical committee is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the joint technical committee are circulated to national bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the national bodies casting a vote. Atten
18、tion is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this part of ISO/IEC 7811 may be the subject of patent rights. ISO and IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO/IEC 7811-1 was prepared by Joint Technical Committee ISO/IEC JTC 1, Information te
19、chnology, Subcommittee SC 17, Cards and personal identification. This third edition of ISO/IEC 7811-1 cancels and replaces ISO/IEC 7811-1:1995 and ISO/IEC 7811-3:1995. The user is encouraged to review the entire standard for revisions and updates. The major changes made during this revision are list
20、ed below. 1. The requirements given in ISO/IEC 7811-3:1995 are included in this edition of ISO/IEC 7811-1. 2. Special physical characteristics for embossing formerly detailed in ISO/IEC 7810:1995 have been moved to this standard. 3. Added an informative annex for a test method for embossability. ISO
21、/IEC 7811 consists of the following parts, under the general title Identification cards Recording technique: Part 1: Embossing Part 2: Magnetic stripe Low coercivity Part 6: Magnetic stripe High coercivity Annexes A and B form a normative part of this part of ISO/IEC 7811. Annex C is information onl
22、y. Copyright American National Standards Institute Provided by IHS under license with ANSINot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-11 ScopeThis part of ISO/IEC 7811 is one of a series of standards describing the parameters for identification cards asdefined
23、in the definitions clause and the use of such cards for international interchange.This part of ISO/IEC 7811 specifies requirements for embossed characters on identification cards. The embossedcharacters are intended for transfer of data either by use of imprinters or by visual or machine reading. It
24、 takes intoconsideration both human and machine aspects and states minimum requirements.It is the purpose of this series of standards to provide criteria to which cards shall perform. No consideration isgiven within these standards to the amount of use, if any, experienced by the card prior to test.
25、 Failure to conformto specified criteria should be negotiated between the involved parties.ISO/IEC 10373-1 specifies the test procedures used to check cards against the parameters specified in thispart of ISO/IEC 7811.NOTE Numeric values in the SI and/or Imperial measurement system in this part of I
26、SO/IEC 7811 may have beenrounded off and therefore are consistent with, but not exactly equal to, each other. Either system may be used, but the twoshould not be intermixed or reconverted. The original design was made using the Imperial measurement system.2 ConformanceA prerequisite for conformance
27、with this part of ISO/IEC 7811 is conformance with ISO/IEC 7810 for the ID-1 sizecard. An identification card is in conformance with this part of ISO/IEC 7811 if it meets all mandatory requirementsspecified herein. Default values apply if no others are specified.3 Normative referencesThe following n
28、ormative documents contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions ofthis part of ISO/IEC 7811. For dated references, subsequent amendments to, or revisions of, any of thesepublications do not apply. However, parties to agreements based on this part of ISO/IEC 7811 ar
29、e encouraged toinvestigate the possibility of applying the most recent editions of the normative documents indicated below.

35、r that identifies the card holder5 Card characteristicsSpecial attention shall be paid to the characteristics of the material affecting its suitability for this purpose,particularly in respect to its ability to resist crushing and collapsing of the embossed parts when operating inimprinters.Cards sh
36、all be made of PVC (polyvinyl chloride) and/or PVCA (polyvinyl chloride acetate) or materials having equalor better performance such as polyesters, polyethylenes and polycarbonates.NOTE Refer to machine manufacturer instructions regarding card construction requirements for achieving embossedcharacte
37、r relief heights in compliance with this part of ISO/IEC 7811. At the time of publication there was no agreed testmethod for verifying the suitability of card structures for embossing. See Informative Annex C.5.1 Card warpageWhen lying convex side up on a flat rigid surface, the maximum distance fro
38、m the flat surface to any non-embossedportion of the convex side of an embossed card immediately prior to issue shall not be greater than 2,5 mm(0.10 in) including the card thickness.NOTE The amount of card warpage depends on the card material and the embossing technique used.5.2 Surface distortions
39、No raised area shall exceed 0,51 mm (0.020 in) on the front of the card in the area A as shown in Figure 1.ISO/IEC 7811-1:2002(E) ISO/IEC 2002 All rights reserved Copyright American National Standards Institute Provided by IHS under license with ANSINot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permit
