Codablock F is a stack of Code 128 rows, from 2 to 44 of them, each with a number that tells the scanner where it belongs. It holds a long value in a block much narrower than one Code 128 would be.

| What it holds | |
| Characters | Every letter, digit and symbol on the keyboard, and the accented letters of Western European languages - é, ü, ñ and the like. The euro sign and other alphabets don't fit: use a QR Code for those. |
| Length | Up to 5,452 digits or 2,726 other characters - an accented letter counts as two. |
| Check digit | A check character in each row, and two for the whole barcode, worked out by Labeljoy. |
| Readable text | None. |
There's nothing to set: Labeljoy chooses the number of rows and how many characters go in each, to keep the block about as tall as it is wide. A short value still gets two rows.
Characters you can't type. A tilde followed by three digits is the character with that
code - ~013 is a carriage return - and ~~ is a tilde.
The rest of the settings - quiet zone, color - are in the Barcode section.
| What goes wrong | |
| Input data too long. | The value doesn't fit even 44 rows. |
| Only Latin-1 characters, the letters of Western European languages, fit in this barcode. | The value has a character Codablock F can't hold - a euro sign, another alphabet, an emoji. |
