Overview
 The ITF-14 or UPC Shipping
Container Symbol is used to mark cartons, cases, or pallets that contain
products which have a UPC or EAN product identification number. The short-hand
name for the symbol is "ITF-14", which is an acronym for "Interleaved 2 of 5"
(the Barcode Symbology used) and 14 digits (the length of the container
symbol). The ITF-14 symbol has the following structure:
-
1 digit for Packaging indicator
-
2 digits for UPC numbering system or EAN prefix
-
5 digits for Manufacturer identification number
-
5 digits for Item identification number
-
1 digit for Checksum which is automatically calculated by Barcode Professional
The value to encode passed to Barcode Professional must be 13
digits only because the 14th digit (the checksum) is automatically calculated
by Barcode Professional products.
