The pitched symbol’s nearest and farthest elements must be within the
minimum and maximum reading distance of your scanner.
Centering your symbol within the scanner’s minimum and maximum scan
range can help guard against pitched symbols exceeding the scan range
limits. However , you could exceed the scan range with a pitched symbol, as
shown in Figures 3.10 and 3.11.
