10、 standardization. National bodies that are members of ISO or IEC participate in the development of International Standards through technical committees established by the respective organization to deal with particular fields of technical activity. ISO and IEC technical committees collaborate in fie

11、lds of mutual interest. Other international organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO and IEC, also take part in the work. In the field of information technology, ISO and IEC have established a joint technical committee, ISO/IEC JTC 1. International Standards are drafted

12、in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of the joint technical committee is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the joint technical committee are circulated to national bodies for voting. Publication as an Internati

13、onal Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the national bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO and IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO/I

14、EC 15421 was prepared by Joint Technical Committee ISO/IEC JTC 1, Information technology, Subcommittee SC 31, Automatic identification and data capture techniques. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO/IEC 15421:2000), which has been technically revised. ISO/IEC 15421:2010(

15、E) ISO/IEC 2010 All rights reserved vIntroduction The technology of bar coding is based on the recognition of patterns encoded in bars and spaces of specified dimensions. A wide variety of methods exists by which these bar and space patterns can be reproduced as a physical image. Conventional printi

16、ng processes such as offset lithography, photogravure, letterpress, screen process, hot foil stamping and flexography require one or more intermediate image carriers, for example artwork, photographic film, printing plates or cylinders, screens or dies. The term bar code master refers to the first p

17、hysical image of the complete bar code symbol from which the other image carriers can be produced. Some processes directly create an image carrier without generating a master that would be covered by this International Standard. In order to make allowances for variability of the production processes

18、, and to ensure the correct encoding of the data to be represented, certain procedures need to be performed during the preparation of the bar code master. This International Standard does not define the procedures but states the requirements for a bar code master. INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO/IEC 1542

19、1:2010(E) ISO/IEC 2010 All rights reserved 1Information technology Automatic identification and data capture techniques Bar code master test specifications 1 Scope This International Standard specifies the requirements and test methods for physical and related attributes of a bar code master. It cov

20、ers all forms of bar code master, irrespective of the mode of origination of the initial image, intended for reproduction by conventional printing processes. This International Standard does not cover processes in which there is no master, such as computer to plate (CTP). 2 Normative references The
