PDF417 (2D barcode) in Smartforms --(GTL)

[Former Member]

Dear Gurus,

I need help to use the pdf417 symbology for printing barcodes on a Zebra printer using smartforms.

I am developing a label where in i need to include all the information in the 2d label ,

like material number, qunatity, container number and so on..., each field is seperated by a group seperator.

the group seperators are GS (HEX: 1D, DEC: 29), please let me know how to include this in my code.

[)>RS06GS<b>field1</b>GS<b>field2</b>GSf<b>ield3</b>GS<b>field4</b>GS<b>field5</b>RSEOT

[,),>,RS,GS,EOT are all the special characters and all their hexadecimal codes are available.

please let me know how to handle this issue.

Thanks

Hi Lakshmi,

use <b>\0x1D</b> for GS

<b>\0x1E</b> for RS

<b>\0x04</b> for EOT

you can use those separators directly in your smartform textbox

[)>\0x1E06\0x1DP&kdmat&\0x1DQ&vemng&

Hope that helps

Klaus
