1. Bps File For Code 128 Barcode Symbology For Acrobatics

This document explains the PDF barcode form fields in Acrobat DC. (If you are looking for information on PDF form field basics, PDF form field properties, or set action buttons in PDF forms, click the appropriate link above. To explore the common questions on forms, see PDF Forms FAQ.)

Barcode fields translate a user’s form entries intoa visual pattern that can be scanned, interpreted, and incorporatedinto a database. Barcodes are helpful when users submit the formon paper or by fax.

The advantages of using barcodes are that they save time, eliminatethe need for responses to be manually read and recorded, and bypassdata-entry errors that can occur.

A typical barcode workflow includes the following phases:

• The form author makes sure that Automatically Calculate Field Values is selected in the forms preferences, and then creates the form in Acrobat, setting up all the other fields as usual.

• The form author adds the barcode field to the form, setting up the barcode so that it captures the needed data.

• The form author enables the form for Acrobat Reader users (if the author wants to allow the users to save their own filled-in copy of the form or if it contains certain barcode fields).

• The form author distributes the form to other users.

• Users fill in the form on their computers and submit it electronically or print a copy and deliver the copy to the form distributor.

• The received barcode data is interpreted in one of the following ways, and can then be reviewed, sorted, and used by the form receiver:

  Forms faxed to a fax server

  The form receiver can use Adobe Acrobat Capture® to collect TIFF images from the fax server and place them in an Adobe LiveCycle Barcoded Forms Decoder watched folder, if the receiver owns those products.

  Forms delivered on paper

  The form receiver can scan paper forms and then use an application such as LiveCycle Barcoded Forms Decoder to decode the barcodes within those forms.

Note:

Acrobat Capture and LiveCycle Barcoded Forms Decoder are stand-alone products appropriate for enterprise workflows and are sold separately from Acrobat.

Issues that affecthow you design and place barcodes include usability and space. Asan example, the barcode size can also limit the amount of data thatcan be encoded. For the best results, follow these guidelines.

• Position the barcode so that it’s unlikely to get foldedwhen placed in an envelope, and position it far enough from theedges of the page so that it won’t get clipped off during printingor faxing.

• Position it so that it can be easily seen and scanned. Ifa handheld scanner will be used, avoid barcodes wider than 4 inches(10.3 cm). Tall, narrow barcodes generally work best in this case.Also, avoid compressing the contents of the barcode when using ahandheld scanner.

• Make sure that the size of the barcode can accommodate theamount of data to encode. If the barcode area is too small, it turnsa solid gray. Be sure to test a completed form before distributingit to make sure that the barcode area is large enough.

One of the ways in which you can improve aPDF form barcode is by creating custom scripts. Writing such scriptsrequires a basic competency with JavaScript and a familiarity withAcrobat-specific JavaScript. For more information, see Developing Acrobat®Applications Using JavaScript™ on www.adobe.com/go/learn_acr_javascript_en (PDF,English only). For information about basic JavaScript, see any ofthe many resources available on that subject.

Note:

Afterinserting a barcode of maximum size, changing the cell size or decode conditionmay cause the barcode to cross the page borders. Avoid this behaviorby selecting the appropriate cell size and decode conditions forthe barcode.

Open the form in Acrobat. Open the Preferences dialog box (Edit > Preferences), and select Forms on the left. Then select Automatically Calculate Field Values.

Drag a rectangle to define the barcode area, and thendouble-click the barcode field to open the Properties dialog box.

• Select Encode Using, and then select a format (XML or Tab Delimited). Click the Pick button and select the fields that you want to be encoded in the barcode field. If you don’t want to include the field names in the barcode data, deselect Include Field Names.

• Select Custom Calculation Script, click Edit, and then enter your custom JavaScript code in the JavaScript Editor dialog box.

• Select a Symbology option: PDF417, QR Code, orData Matrix.

• Select Compress Data Before Encoding To Barcode if you want to apply this compression. Do not select this option if a handheld scanner is used to capture data from returned forms.

• In Decode Condition, choose the type of hardware to process returned forms: Handheld Barcode Scanner, Fax Server,Document Scanner, or Custom.

• If necessary, click Custom and enter values for X Dimension, Y/X Ratio, and Error Correction Level.

Make any other changes in the General and Actions tabs.Then close the Barcode Field Properties dialogbox.

JavaScript code is generated automatically to encodethe selected fields in the XML or Tab Delimited format.The Barcode Field Properties dialog box closes, and the barcodefor which you specified values appears on the form.

Note:

Ifyou add a new field to a form after you have created the barcode,it is not automatically included in the data for existing barcodes.However, you can manually include additional data fields in thebarcode.

Fill in the form. Use sample data that represents themaximum amount of information for each field or that you expectusers to enter.

If the barcode field is dimmed, follow either the procedurefor resizing the barcode field or for adjusting the content data.(See the following tasks.)

Make sure that the barcode field area is large enough to contain all of the incoming data. To remove the sample data, in the right hand pane, choose More >Clear Form.

The barcode form field is now ready for distribution.

If you are not in the form editing mode, choose Tools > Prepare Form.

• If Encode Using is selected, click Pick, and select additional form fields to be encoded.

• If Custom Calculation Script is selected, click Edit, and write additional JavaScript to include the additional fields.

After including new data fields in the barcode, be surethat the barcode area is large enough by testing sample data. Ifthe barcode area is dimmed, adjust the barcode size or text fieldproperties so that the data content fits into the barcode area.

If you are not in the form editing mode, choose Tools > Prepare Form.

Double-click the barcode field, and do any of the following:

• In the Options tab, click the Custom button and enter lower values for Error Correction Level and Y/X Ratio.

• In the Options tab, select Compress Data Before Encoding To Barcode, but only if you are using an Adobe software decoder (available separately).

• In the Value tab, select Tab Delimited rather than XML as the data-encoding format. XML requires more barcode area to encode information than Tab Delimited does.

• In the Options tab, select a different Symbology option.

• In the Value tab, click the Pick button, and deselect any fields that don’t need encoding. For example, don’t include fields with redundant information.

• In the Value tab, enter a custom script that converts user-entered text to either all lowercase or all uppercase characters during the encoding process.

Note:

The National Association of Computerized Tax Processors (NACTP) guidelines, used by the United States Internal Revenue Service and state tax agencies, recommend using all uppercase characters for 2D barcode data.

To minimize the amount of barcode area for containingthe data, double-click the barcode field, and in the Value tab,write a custom script that restricts data to alphanumeric charactersand to a single case. (Text that is either all uppercase or alllowercase requires less barcode area than the same text writtenin a mixture of uppercase and lowercase characters.)

Note:

Consider creating additional barcodefields in the form and mapping different data to each barcode field.

If a PDF document doesn’t have a specifiedtab order, the default tabbing order is based on the document structureunless the user has deselected the Tab Order optionin the Accessibility preferences.

You can change the tabbingorder after you create the fields. If you are in form editing mode,you can order the tabs by document structure (default), row, or column.You can also choose the order manually by dragging and droppingfields in the Fields panel. If you are not in the editing mode,you can change the page properties to order the tabs by row or column.However, you can’t customize the tab order manually.

If you are not in form editing mode, choose Tools > Prepare Form.

In the Fields panel on the right, make sure that you have selected Sort By > Tab Order.

(Optional) To view the tabbing order for the fields, in the Fields panel, choose Tab Orders > Show Tab Numbers.

If you are in the form editing mode, click the cross button towards the right in the toolbar to exit the mode.
