What is CODABLOCK-F?

A stacked barcode that arranges multiple Code 128-style rows into a rectangular symbol. Row indicators and checks allow a scanner to reconstruct the complete message.

How it is structured

Between 2 and 44 rows, each containing Code 128-derived codewords plus row identifiers. A global check character protects the reconstructed message.

Where it is used

Healthcare and laboratory labels, electronics, logistics, and legacy applications needing more data than a single Code 128 row can hold.
