EAN13n

EAN13n refers to a specific variant or interpretation of the EAN-13 barcode standard. The EAN-13 is a globally recognized 13-digit barcode symbology used for identifying retail products. It is composed of a 12-digit number plus a single check digit. The "n" in EAN13n is not a standard part of the official GS1 EAN-13 specification. Its usage might imply a particular context, software implementation, or a specific data encoding scheme related to EAN-13.

Typically, an EAN-13 barcode encodes a Global Trade Item Number (GTIN). The first two digits represent the country code, followed by nine digits for the product code, and the final digit is a check digit calculated using a specific algorithm to ensure data integrity. The "n" designation could potentially indicate a modified or extended version of the EAN-13 data, perhaps for internal tracking or specific database requirements. However, without further context, EAN13n is not a formally defined barcode standard. It is crucial to refer to the originating system or documentation when encountering this term to understand its precise meaning and application within that specific environment. The core structure and validation of the barcode itself would still adhere to the EAN-13 principles if it is indeed based on it.
