The Codabar barcode symbology is also known as ABC Codabar, CodaBar, USD-4, NW-7, Code 2 of 7, Monarch, Code-27, Ames code, Rationalized Codabar, 2 of 7 Code, ANSI/AIM Codabar, Uniform Symbology Specification Codabar, USS Codabar, etc. It was developed in 1972 by Pitney Bowes, Inc. It is a discrete, variable self-checking symbology that may encode 16 different characters. There are four different start and stop signs defined. They are only valid at the beginning and the end of the code. They can be used to transport additional information. This barcode symbology is used by U.S. blood banks, photo labs, and on FedEx airbills.
