Unable to read e-passport with 3 line MRZ identity documents #35

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
On identity documents like the old UK ID card, the data of the machine-readable 
zone consists of three rows of 30 characters each.

E-passport script only expects the second line of the two line format MRZ used 
on passports.
