In addition to the 13 digits encoded by the symbol, the complete 10‑digit ISBN is usually printed in its human‑readable format. The checksum digit is not encoded. The ISBN bar code descriptor contains two sets of fields for specifying the placement, typeface, and style of these two separate text strings. In an ISBN symbol, the data must consist of a 10‑digit ISBN, optionally followed by a 5‑digit add‑on code. If this code appears in the data, then an EAN‑13+5 symbol is generated, with the add‑on code encoded in the +5 section of the symbol. The last digit of an ISBN, the checksum digit, may be an x (ASCII 88). To enhance readability, "-" (ASCII 45) may appear anywhere in the data. In an ISBN text printed with the symbol, a hyphenation algorithm inserts "-" regardless of where they appear in the data.

ISBN bar codes are EAN
13 symbols that encode the first 9 digits of an ISBN prefaced by a special Bookland
country code (978). In addition to the 13 digits encoded by the symbol, the complete 10
digit ISBN is usually
printed in its human
readable format. The checksum digit is not encoded. The ISBN bar code descriptor contains
two sets of fields for specifying the placement, typeface, and style of these two separate text strings.
In an ISBN symbol, the data must consist of a 10
digit ISBN, optionally followed by a 5
digit add
on code. If this
code appears in the data, then an EAN
13+5 symbol is generated, with the add
on code encoded in the +5
section of the symbol. The last digit of an ISBN, the checksum digit, may be an
x
(ASCII 88).
To enhance readability, "
-
" (ASCII 45) may appear anywhere in the data. In an ISBN text printed with the symbol,
a hyphenation algorithm inserts "
-
" regardless of where they appear in the data.
