ISO/IEC 7811-3:1995

OVERVIEW

This part of 1S0/IEC 7811 specifies the location of embossed characters on identification cards of ID-1 size, the dimensions of which are specified in ISO/IEC 7810. The embossed characters are intended for transfer of data either by use of imprinters or by visual or machine reading.

IS0/IEC 10373 specifies the test procedures used to check cards against the parameters specified in this part of IS0/IEC 7811. 

This part of ISO/IEC 7811 specifies the requirements for cards used for identification. It takes into consider­ation both human and machine aspects and states minimum requirements. 

NOTE - Numeric values in the SI and/or Imperial measure­ment system in this part of ISO/IEC 7811 may have been rounded off and therefore are consistent with, but not exactly equal to, each other. Either system may be used, but the two should not be intermixed or reconverted. The original design was made using the Imperial measurement system.
