Some two-dimensional (2-D) are organized into multiple rows of information, where each row looks like a very thin . For example, the following image is a Code 49 symbol that has three rows.
Use the Rows option to set the number of rows that you want for your symbol. When you select Auto, the number of rows and columns in the data area is adjusted so that the symbol's overall shape is as close to a square as possible.
The following symbologies use this option.
The CODABLOCK F symbology supports between 2 and 44 rows. You can specify the number of rows, but only certain combinations of rows and columns can be used. Therefore, the number of rows that is available in the Rows list varies depending on the number of columns that is selected in the Columns option.
The Code 16K symbology supports between 2 and 16 rows.
The Code 49 symbology supports between 2 and 8 rows.
The MicroPDF417 symbology automatically determines the number of rows to use based on the value and the number of columns that is selected in the Columns option.
The PDF417 symbology supports between 3 and 90 rows. You can specify the number of rows, but only certain combinations of rows and columns can be used. Therefore, the number of rows that is available in the Rows list varies depending on the number of columns that is selected in the Columns option.
