CODE-93 Barcode Format

CODE-93 was designed in 1982 by U.S. firm Intermec to provide a higher density and data security enhancement compared to CODE-39. It is an alphanumeric, variable length symbology with every symbol including two checking characters.

Each CODE-93 character is divided into 9 modules and consists of three bars and three spaces. Each bar and space is up to 4 modules wide. In addition to the initial 43 characters, the symbology defines 5 special characters, that helps to represent all ASCII characters.

Standard CODE-93 features that are supported by the Barcode Generator include:

  • Optional full ACII charset support;
  • Adjustable bar widths for printing error compensation;
  • Manual and automatic bar height modes;
  • Font customization; and
  • Customizable front and back colors with spot color support for EPS file export.

High-quality PNG and TIFF CODE-93 barcode images can be exported to your desktop, or dragged-and-dropped into Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator, using the Barcode Software.
