Support for 2-D bar codes. When used in conjunction with DesignMerge, the Meadows 2D Bar Code Module
for Adobe InDesign allows you to create fully variable 2-D (two-dimensional) bar codes based on data taken from a database field.
Supported formats are QR Code, DataMatrix, and PDF417.
Unicode support. The DesignMerge dot-11 software supports UTF-8 Unicode text. Of course, like previous
versions, it also supports the import of ASCII text. The DesignMerge dot-11 Database Definitions feature
has a new "Data Type" setting that allows you to indicate whether the database file you're using
contains UTF-8 data or ASCII data. In addition, DesignMerge's Quick Setup feature determines automatically
when a database file is a UTF-8 text file if the file includes the UTF-8 BOM (Byte Order Mark).
