A Swiss postal barcode encoding "RI 476 394 652 CH" in Code 128 (B & C) Code 128 is a high-density linear barcode symbology defined in ISO/IEC 15417:2007. [1] It is used for alphanumeric or numeric-only barcodes. It can encode all 128 characters of ASCII and, by use of an extension symbol (FNC4), the Latin-1 characters defined in ISO/IEC 8859-1.
Each end of the bar code consists of repeated narrow elements terminated by a pair of wide elements, but the start has a wide bar first, while the end terminates with a wide space. In addition to per-character parity bits, a Telepen symbol includes an overall modulo-127 checksum.
The Code 16K (1988) is a multi-row bar code developed by Ted Williams at Laserlight Systems (USA) in 1992. In the US and France, the code is used in the electronics industry to identify chips and printed circuit boards. Medical applications in the USA are well known. Williams also developed Code 128, and the structure of 16K is based on Code 128.
For codes from 0 to 127, the original 7-bit ASCII standard set, most of these characters can be used without a character reference. Codes from 160 to 255 can all be created using character entity names. Only a few higher-numbered codes can be created using entity names, but all can be created by decimal number character reference.
DotCode barcode was invented in 2008 [1] by Dr. Andrew Longacre from Hand Held Products company and standardized in 2009 [6] by AIM as “Bar code symbology specification - DotCode”. [7] In 2019 DotCode was reviewed as “ISS DotCode Symbology Specification 4.0”. [2] Set of patents is registered, which are related with DotCode encoding and ...
Once you have calculated your check digit, simply map each character in the string to be encoded using the table above as a reference to get the binary map of the bar code; remember to precede the code with "start" and to end it with "stop" For example, to map the string 1234567 with a Mod 10 check digit it would produce the following binary map:

Codablock symbologies [16] [17] has been developed as a stacked version of Code 39 and Code 128 barcodes and has some advantages of 2D barcodes. They allow to utilize rectangular space more effectively then 1D barcode and have additional checking characters to ensure the content of the overall message.
