Character position definition and scope:

A one-character alphabetic code indicates the specific material designation for a nonprojected graphic.  The specific material designation describes the special class of material (usually the class of physical object) to which the item belongs, for example, a picture.  A fill character ( | ) is used when no attempt has been made to code this position.

Record requirements for National-level records:  Mandatory; for Minimal-level records:  Optional.
