Patch code
placement Patches may appear parallel to the leading edge of the document:
Leading Edge
(fed into the transport first)
Patches may also be placed perpendicular to the leading edge of the
document (in which case, they are called end-fed patches):
Leading Edge
(fed into the transport first)
NOTE: End-fed patch reading is only available with a Document
Scanning Array. End fed patches are scanned from right to left.
Therefore, the patch must be oriented so the leading edge of
the patch is toward the right edge of the document as fed. If the
patch is not oriented properly, it may be misread, or not read at
all.
Detailed specifications for creating patch codes are provided in Patch
Code Information for
Kodak Imagelink Products (A-61599).
