Key Features: Created from ANSI Specs - The OCR-A and OCR-B fonts are special fonts that are used for   optical character recognition systems. The OCR-A and OCR-B character sets contain upper case and lower case letters, numbers, and several special characters. The OCR-A font characters were created from ANSI X3.17-1981 specifications and the OCR-B font characters were created from ANSI X3.49-1982 specifications. Special Symbols - are provided for purposes such as international character support. To see   locations for these symbols, open the IDAutomationOCRa font in Windows® and go to the "Character Map" application. ANSI Size 1 and 4 - when printing the IDAutomationOCRa font with the size of 12, this font   conforms to ANSI specification size 4 which is an approximate character height of 3.8mm and a character width of 2mm.
