HIBC Aztec Code for higher-capacity device labels
Medical device labels that need to carry more HIBC data than the default auto-selected layer count provides can fix a higher layer count directly -- this generator applies a fixed 4-layer size by default.
Same generator, one preset applied
This experience uses the same HIBC Aztec Code capability as the primary generator, with the layer count fixed at 4 ("layers": 4) instead of letting bwip-js auto-select the smallest layer count that fits.
Example data
The generator is seeded with a bwip-js-verified valid value, distinct from the primary's example.
Workflow
Enter your HIBC data (no leading "+"), confirm the preview, then export SVG or PNG for the device label artwork.
Job-specific settings
No job-specific options beyond the fixed 4-layer size are applied here.
Scanning notes
HIBC Aztec Code requires a reader capable of decoding Aztec Code's own bullseye finder pattern, the same reader class the primary generator's own symbols use.
Common mistakes
A character outside HIBC's own 43-character set is the most common rejection; this is unaffected by the layer-count preset itself.
Standard
HIBC Aztec Code follows the Health Industry Bar Code (HIBC) Labeler Identification Code standard, maintained by the Health Industry Business Communications Council (HIBCC).
