I'm building a form which requires us to store around 2200 characters in barcodes. I understand that the limit for barcode capacity is theoretically 2710 characters, however no matter how large I set the barcode to, I'm unable to store more than about 900 characters in it. We have a physical limit for the placement of the barcodes in a space of 105mm x 90mm.
I've tried with barcodes of varying size (105mm x 45mm) and (190mm x 177mm) but am still not able to get anywhere near the max.
I tested using characters from the same character set, so that we didn't lose codewords whilst switching character sets, but it didn't seem to help.
Any idea's/tips?
Thanks,
Keat
