General information 

regarding this form



- 24 -
        General Information (2017 Ohio IT 1140): 
1) Dimensions:  
  
  Target or registration marks - 6 mm X  6 mm. Follow grid layout for positioning. 

  1D barcode (2 of 5 interleaved) - .375”H x 1.5”W. Follow grid layout for positioning. Center the barcode number 
    directly under the barcode. 

  2D barcode (PDF 417) - See 2D instructions and schema. Follow grid layout for positioning. There is one 2D 
    barcode on each page of the Ohio IT 1140. 

2) 1D barcode - The last two numbers of the 1D barcode represent the vendor number. Use the same vendor 
number as you did for last year’s return. If you have a question about your barcode assignment, e-mail the Forms 
Unit at Forms@tax.state.oh.us. The first six numbers are constant for this form (171701XX - 171706XX). 

  17 = tax year 
  17 = Ohio IT 1140 
  01-06 = page number 
  XX = vendor number (assigned to you by the Ohio Dept. of Taxation, Forms Unit). 

    NOTE: The vendor number also serves as the first two digits of the SSN and FEIN fields in the test 
    scenarios. 

3)  New! Use Arial font for the static text on the form. The static text for all target marks and header information 
(target marks, logo, title and 1D barcode) must match grid. 

4) Use monospaced Arial or similar monospaced san serif font for the variable data fields on the form. 

5) Follow the grid layout for the variable data fields shown in red. Ensure that the tax year, target or reg-
istration marks, “For Department Use Only” area and the 1D and 2D barcodes follow grid layout. 

6) Do not use commas, hyphens or decimals in the variable data fields except where shown in specs. 

7)   All monetary fields must always show “00” in the cents field even though there may not be a value for that line. 

8) You mustinclude  a leading zero on ratio fields.For  example,ifthe      ratio is .000026,itshould      display as 0.000026. 

9)  The possible negative fields for this return are Schedule A: both columns of line 4; Schedule B: both columns 
of lines 1, 3 and 4 and Schedule D, lines 1 and 3. Do not hard-code negative signs. 

10)  Provide guidance to customers regarding duplex printing that instructs them to print pages 1 and 2 together 
and pages 3 and 4 together. Taxpayers have filed returns with pages 2 and 3 duplexed or a worksheet or software 
receipt on the back of a page of the return. This slows the processing of the tax return. 

11)  New! Generate the following message for customers: “Do not enclose other documentation unless it is 
specified on the tax return or instructions.” Taxpayers often submit worksheets and receipts from the vendor 
product, which slows the processing of tax returns. Any other documentation generated from the software must 
include a 1D barcode identifying it as an additional information. The preferred placement is centered on the top 
edge of the page within the print area, however placement at any location on the page will be accepted. Always 
use the following 1D barcode (2 of 5 interleaved): 

        10211411 

12) IMPORTANT NOTE:  Add this statement to your software programs. It should print out with the taxpayer’s 
return. “Do not hand write in any corrections on the printed paper return. Hand writing in corrections will 
result in capturing incorrect data and delaying the processing of this income tax return. Make any cor-
rections to this income tax return within [the software program name], then print and mail.” 

13) See the 2D barcode instructions for submission details.

    •  The minimum error correction code level is   4 
    •  Products must not print a 2D barcode       prior to being approved   in Ohio

       grid layout 
    •  The maximum size   of the 2D barcode   is 3.5 inches wide by   1 inch   in height and must fit 
       within the designated space   in the grid layout 
    •  2D barcode must not     be bigger than the allocated area 
 
 2D Barcode  Layout  
    •  Each field   in the barcode   is delimited by   a single carriage return 
       o  <CR> equals single carriage return character 
       o  This separates each piece   of data so it may be identified and processed. 
    •  Data included   in the 2D barcode can be broken down into three general sections 
 
 Header 
       Header Version Number 
          •   Static for all barcodes, value   is T1 
       Developer Code 
          •      A four-digit  vendor code    identifying    the software  developer whose   application 
              produced the barcode 
       Jurisdiction 
          •   Static for all barcodes, value   is OH 
       Description 
          •      A four-digit form    identifier, specific   to each form 
       Spec Version 
          •   A one-digit specification version control number starting with the number         zero 
          •   This number identifies the version   of the specifications used   to produce the form 
              barcode 
       Form Version 
          •   A one-digit form version control number starting with the number one (1) 
          •   This number will only be incremented when there are changes made that would 
              affect the content of the barcode 
       Date Generated 
          •   Included on page   1 only 
          •   Indicates date return was generated from the product 
 
 Form Specific Data           –Please see encoding schemas       for form  specific data 
       •  All fields on form are required and must be included   in the 2D barcode 
       •  Fields with values are represented by the data followed by   a carriage return 




- 27 -
    •    Fields with no values are represented by   a carriage return only; this results   in two 
         adjacent carriage returns 
    •    Note that the data format within the 2D barcode for the Weight, Ratio and Weighted 
         Ratio differs from the print version. Do not include the decimal point in the 2D data.

    •    The trailer   is used   to indicate the end   of data has been reached 
    •    A static string of *EOD* is used as     the trailer value
