The checksum digit is not encoded in the symbol. It is required in the data only for inclusion in the ISBN text
printed with the symbol. A calculation in Forms and Bar Code Card does
not
verify or replace the ISBN checksum
digit.
The following conditions produce an error message:
•
Lengths other than 10 or 15 digits
•
Any character other than a digit or a "
-
" except for an
X
in the tenth digital position
Cursor positioning is handled similarly as one
‑
dimensional symbologies.
If bytes 5 or 8 are changed from their default values, then the parameters of the bar height and the bar and
space width assume new dimensions, based on the new units. In other words, the parameters are in units, and
if the measurements of the units change, then so does the physical printed bar code.
If any of the parameters are set to
0
, then the default value assigned in the table is used.
