Code 39 is variable length and is the most frequently used symbology in
industrial barcode systems today. It is extensively used within the
Department of Defense (DOD). The principal feature is to encode
messages using the full alphanumeric character set. Standard Code 39
contains only 43 characters (0-9, A-Z, $, /, %, +, -, ., SPACE) and can be
extended to a 128 character symbology (full ASCII) by combining one of
the special characters (S, /, %, +) with a letter (A-Z) to form the characters
that are not present in the standard Code 39 symbology.
See page 6 for information on setting the minimum and maximum lengths.
