Abstract
A method of producing a digital image of a machine readable optical code symbol having areas of different spectral characteristics and which is printable on differing printers having differing dot pitches. A desired nominal unit dimension is selected for each area of the optical code symbol; a resulting nominal unit dimension for each area is defined as a function of the dot pitch of a target printer; and a vector representation of the optical code symbol is provided using the resulting nominal unit dimension.
