EAN 128 barcode with gs character

Post by lutin7812 »

Hi, we're using stimulsoft .net report 2016.3.1 we're trying to encode a GS1 EAN 128 barcode.
As soon we put non printable character like GS (ascii 29) we got an error, incorrect data.
This string in the text editor works: (01)01234567890123(37)0050(15)190528(10)932501
This one gives an incorrect data error: (01)01234567890123(37)0050{(char)29}(15)190528(10)932501
We've tried also with .net expression like String.Concat etc., same error.

The GS1 spec, indicates that after variables AI like (37), we need a GS char separator (ascii 29).

How should we proceed?
Thank's for help.

Hello, Olivier.

You don't need to add the GS symbol.
If the type of barcode is set to GS1 this symbol is added automatically.

Thank you.
