The exception is that it does not allow function codes FNC2 to FNC4 to be used in a symbol. FNC1 is also used as part of the start code in the symbol. The check digit in EAN/UCC-128 symbols is calculated differently than in Code 128. An ISBN or Bookland EAN bar code is a special form of the EAN-13 symbol consisting of the ISBN number preceded by the digits 978. The supplemental in an ISBN bar code is simply the retail price of the book preceded by the digit 5 (for U.S. dollar as the currency). An ISSN bar code is a special form of the EAN-13 symbol. It encodes the first seven digits of an ISSN, prefaced by a special "land of serial publications" country code (977), followed by a two-digit price code. The checksum digit is not encoded. The last character of an ISSN, the checksum digit, may be an x (ASCII 88). There can be an add-on of either two or five digits for the issue number of the serial publication.
