PDF417 barcode generator
Shipping labels, boarding passes, and government ID documents that need to store large amounts of structured data offline.
Character set
Full ASCII and binary data across a stacked, multi-row symbol
Typical use
Shipping labels, boarding passes, and government ID documents that need to store large amounts of structured data offline.
How it compares
PDF417 stores far more data than Data Matrix in exchange for a larger printed footprint, which is why it's common on documents rather than small parts.
