Barcode 41 (USPS FIM) prints a Facing Identification Mark pattern which may be
printed on the envelope adjacent to the stamp. The combination of a FIM and the POST-
NET (barcode 39) barcode enables faster processing by the USPS.
When generating a FIM pattern, all parameters except type, flag, and string are ignored.
The flag parameter must be N. Characters permitted for the string parameter are ‘A’, ‘B’,
‘C’, and ‘D’ only, and each represents one of four different FIM patterns. For example,
Courtesy Replay Mail and stamped reply mail require the FIM-A pattern, while Business
Reply Mail and unstamped (prepaid) return mail require the FIM-C pattern. Also see the
figure on 8 for FIM location.
Barcode 43 (Customer) has four bar heights. Only the shortest and tallest bar heights are
specifiable, the heights for the intermediate two bars being adjusted automatically. Any
values entered for bar and space widths are ignored and defaulted to 1.68 points respec-
tively. The rules for the order of specifiable bar and space widths, bar1
≤
bar2
≤
bar3
≤
bar4
and space1
≤
space2
≤
space3
≤
space4, must be adhered to, however.
