What is a Code 93 barcode?

Code 93 is a linear barcode symbology designed as an enhanced version of Code 39, offering higher density and greater data security. It is commonly used in logistics, warehousing, and postal services where encoding more characters in a smaller space is crucial. Code 93 is more efficient than Code 39, using a more compact representation for characters, and it includes two check digits to improve error detection.

How much data can a Code 93 barcode hold?

A Code 93 barcode can hold up to 47 characters, including uppercase letters (A-Z), numeric digits (0-9), and a wider set of special characters compared to Code 39. It is more space-efficient, making it suitable for environments where data density is important. Code 93 also provides better error correction through its two mandatory check digits, improving reliability over Code 39.
