Code128 fonts support code sets A, B, and C. When the code set of a line of characters is changed in the middle
of the line, a conversion code is automatically inserted.
❏
The height of the bar code is automatically adjusted to 15% or more of its total length, in conformance to the
Code128 standard. For this reason, it is important to keep at least one space between the bar code and the
surrounding text to prevent overlapping.
❏
Some applications automatically delete the spaces at the end of lines or change multiple spaces into tabs. Bar
codes containing spaces may not be correctly printed from applications that automatically delete spaces from
the ends of lines or change multiple spaces into tabs.
