Bar code descriptor for RSS-14 RSS-14 is a linear symbology that encodes the full 14-digit EAN/UCC item identification in a linear symbol that can be scanned omnidirectionally by suitably programmed pointof-sale scanners. The Reduced Space Symbology (RSS) family contains three linear symbologies: • RSS Limited encodes 14-digit EAN/UCC item identification with Indicator digits of zero or one in a linear symbol for use on small items that will not be scanned at the point-of-sale. • RSS Expanded encodes EAN/UCC item identification plus supplementary AI element strings such as weight and "best before" date in a linear symbol that can be scanned omnidirectionally by suitably programmed point-of-sale scanners. • RSS-14 Stacked is a variation of the RSS-14 symbology that is stacked in two rows and is used when the normal symbol would be too wide for the application. It comes in two versions: - a RSS Truncated version for small item marking applications, and; One-dimensional bar codes 22
