Frequently asked questions

What does PDF417 stand for?

Portable Data File. The 417 refers to the structure of each codeword: four bars and spaces across 17 modules.

How much can it hold?

Around 1,850 text characters, or roughly 1,100 bytes, depending on the error-correction level chosen.

Why do IDs use PDF417 rather than QR?

It stores a large structured record in a rectangle that fits a card, and the standard predates widespread QR adoption in that sector.
