Talk:POSTNET

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

Hi. I found this page which has a link to the POSTNET specification (and something called PLANET, which is another kind of coding, I think). Its a USPS standard, but the link isn't a USPS page:

you might want to put that on your page also. That page also says you can encode longer local delivery codes (not just zip and zip+4)

I (a few edits ago) changed the lower-half bar into Unicode using box drawing techniques. This works in any Unicode-capable browser. Xoder| 16:13, May 3, 2004 (UTC) ___


Hello, I added some information on Postnet barcode formats used since the mid-1980s by USPS. I'll try to come back and add some more, having been involved with USPS automated mail processing since 1988 I think I have something to add. Eric S
