The PDF417 contains a function to correct a code reading error using an error
correcting code word and restore normal data. The security level should be
designated according to usage to perform the error correction function.

(11) No. of columns (strings)
The number of lines is variable in the PDF417. The line length (No. of data
strings) is also variable. Therefore, a symbol can be created in a form that can
be easily printed, by changing the proportion of the height and width.
The number of columns (data strings) is variable between 1 and 30.
If a small value for the number of columns is set when the data is large and the
security level is high, drawing may not be performed. This is because the
number of lines exceeds 90 when the number of columns becomes small. If the
number of lines exceeds 90, a label is issued without being printed.
(When the PDF417 is used, the number of lines of symbols is limited from 3 to
90.)
