Description:
PostNet was developed by the United States Postal
Service (USPS) to allow faster sorting and routing of mail. Postnet is the
familiar, funny-looking barcodes often printed on envelopes and business return
mail.
Unlike most other barcodes in which data is
encoded in the width of the bars and spaces, PostNet actually encodes data in
the height of the bars. That is why when you look at the barcode all the bars
are essentially the same width but vary only in height.
The barcode itself can encode either a standard
5-digit Zip Code, a Zip+4 code, or a full 11-point delivery point code.
The 5-Digit zip code and Zip+4 code are familiar
to virtually anyone who lives in the United States. All addresses include, at a
minimum, a 5-digit zip code (example 80122). If all you have to work with is
this 5-digit code, it may be encoded in PostNet symbology. If you have the full
Zip+4 code (example 80122-1905), the entire 9-digit code may also be encoded in
Postnet.
A lesser known coding mechanism is a
"Delivery Point Code" which is used to identify all 125 million
delivery points in the United States. The Delivery Point Code is a normal Zip+4
code plus an additional 2 digits of information. The two additional digits are
normally made up of the last two digits of the street address or PO Box. For
example, if your zip code is "80122-2014" and your street address is
"3801 E. Arapahoe Road", your Delivery Point Code would be
80122-2014-01. The final "01" is taken from the last two digits of the
3801 street address.
PostNet barcodes, thus, encode either 5, 9, or 11
digits of information. Any other number of digits is invalid.
