String format fro EAN128 codes

[IDEAL Software Support]

Hi,

I'm trying to print EAN128 barcodes but all I get is an empty box.

Is there a special format for the string you pass to the barcode
function for ean128 barcodes (e.g. Leading and trailing characters)?

Thanks

We have no idea why it doesn't work on your side. Which version of VPE are you using?

With the current VPE v3.50, the call VPE.Barcode(1350, 1660, 1750, 1860, BCT_EAN128A, "EAN-128 A", "") produces the correct result.

It might be related to the Automatic Check Digit generation, if you provide yourself a check digit. Try setting BarcodeAutoChecksum = false.
