One of the best types of font to use with code reading systems is called OCR-B. It is in the same family as the OCR-A font, which typically appears at the bottom of bank checks. These fonts are typically alphanumeric and easy for humans and vision systems to read and interpret. The key with any type of typeface is to eliminate any type of discrepancies in the font itself in order to make the image easier to read and decode.
Today the type of technology typically used to print these types of typeface fonts are hi-resolution printers such as thermal inkjet printers which can typically replicate the needed codes for verification systems. Because these verification typefaces are used for important applications such as pharmaceutical labels, it is important to remember that the right type of printer is essential to providing the proper resolution for vision systems and code readers to decode the alphanumeric type properly.
