AFPC Interchange Set Definitions
AFPC Interchange Set Definitions Rationale Why do all this work? – The most important value proposition of an open AFP standard for customers is interoperability of products – The last time we tried to bring products up to a well-defined level of AFP compliance was with the MO: DCA IS/1 and IS/2 interchange set definitions in 1991!!
AFPC Interchange Set Definitions Current architecture activity • MO: DCA ACR 139 – AFPC Interchange Set: MO: DCA IS/3 • IPDS ACR 439 – IPDS Support for MO: DCA Interchange Set IS/3 • GOCA ACR 018: New Function Set Definition (GRS 3) • PTOCA ACR 018: New Function Set Definition (PT 4) • BCOCA ACR 060: BCD 2 Subset ***All ACRs currently at “Active” status***
AFPC Interchange Set Definitions - Should be IN the interchange set q q q Image Container objects GOCA clockwise arcs CMOCA (!? ) - Should be OUT of the interchange set q q Functions that have limited scope, e. g. “saved pages”, UP 3 i Container objects that have limited use, e. g. PCX, PCL Container objects that require expensive RIP, e. g. PS/PDF (see unresolved) - Unresolved q q IOCA FS 11 (proposal to exclude, concern that the lack of grayscale will leave IS/3 in a poor position relative to PDF) CID-keyed fonts (proposal to remove did not reach consensus, requires revisit)
BCOCA Architecture status
BCOCA Architecture - Status q Current specification -q q All BCOCA ACRs are written against this document BCOCA Frequently Asked Questions document q q BCOCA Reference (S 544 -3766 -06), July 2006 Published on www. afpcolor. org Unpublished Final status architecture q Retired items will be identified in next edition q Small USPS Four-State bar code (BCOCA ACR 52) q Small Fixed-Size Bar Codes (BCOCA ACR 53) q Default Parameter-Value Recommendations (BCOCA ACR 54) q Desired Symbol Width Parameter (BCOCA ACR 55) q Miscellaneous Editorial Changes (BCOCA ACR 56) q ACRs at Verified Status – none q ACRs at Consensus Status – 3 q Architecture in process 2 q BCD 2 Subset ACR q Royal Mail RED TAG Bar Code ACR
BCOCA Architecture - Futures Potential new work q USPS Intelligent Mail Container Bar Code The United States Postal Service has defined a category called “Full Service” that requires use of three USPS-defined bar code types: q q 1. Intelligent Mail Barcode – already in BCOCA 2. Container Labels (uses Code 128 -subset B and C) – ACR needed? (for use on mailer-generated pallet, container, or rolling-stock labels) 3. Tray Labels (uses Interleaved 2 -of-5 and Code 128 subset C) – not needed Potential ACR solution summary: 1. Define a new modifier value for the Code 128 bar code type X’ 05’ – Intelligent Mail Container Barcode 2. BCOCA receiver must meet USPS symbology specifications (stay in subset b and c, x dimension between 15. 8 and 19. 5 mils, width less than 5 inches, etc. ) 3. “USPS SCAN REQUIRED” printed above the symbol 4. Identification bars above and below symbol 5. HRI with two blank spaces between each field Example on next slide
