Morse Code Revived
• Syntax– Morse Code defines it best – Alphanumeric characters,
dots(.) and dashes(-)– Some barcode fonts do not support all ASCII
characters. You never want to have part_IDs, warehouse, locations, WOs, purchase orders, customer orders, etc. with the following symbols: !, $, %, *, or a space. Code39 does not handle =, @, ^,$, (,),_, [,],{,},\,/,<,>,?,|,commas, etc.
– Test by creating Word documents using your barcode font. Then see if scanner can read those symbols.
– NOTE: You can purchase barcode fonts suites from 3rd party vendors that will support these special symbols and spaces… try Code128!
