Composite
Composite is a symbol that combines a linear bar code with 2D code as its meaning.
[EAN-13, EAN-8, UPC-A, UPC-E, GS1 DataBar series, and UCC/EAN-128 (GS1-128)] can be used for a linear bar code,
and it’s the composition shall be conformed to each standard. Three kinds [CC-A, CC-B, and CC-C] can be used for 2D
code, and there is a difference in the volume of data etc. that can be encoded. CC-C is combined only with UCC/EAN-128
(GS1-128) though the combination of a linear bar code and 2D code is basically free.
The following figure shows the typical example of [GS1 DataBar CC-A] to explain the configuration of the symbol.

Name
Description
1
Quiet Zone
Blank area necessary when reading bar code. Quiet zone for one module is necessary
for the back and forth. (It is also necessary for the upper side in addition for CC-C.)
2
Start/Stop Pattern
This pattern shows the start and end of the bar code.
3
Data Pattern
This pattern has the characters contained in bar code and data for error correction.
4
Separator
Pattern between a linear bar code and 2D code.
5
Linear Bar Code
Size of quiet zone and the number of characters to be encoded, etc. are the same in
case of using each bar code alone.
Content of code data
• 0 to 9, A to Z, a to z, symbols (! “ % & ‘ ( ) * + , - . / : ; < = > ? _ ), space and function character (FNC1) can be encoded.
It differs according to the encoded character. It differs according to the encoded character. Examples of numeric, CC-A:
Max. 56 characters, CC-B: Max. 338 characters, and CC-C: Max. 2361 characters.
• The directions for encoding the basic information like the commodity identification number for the linear bar code, and
directions for encoding supplementary information like the expiration date and the lot number, etc. are designed. Please
refer to EAN.UCC Composite Symbology of International Symbology Specification for details of the standard.
