Hello Infragistocs-Support!
We are creating a small tool that creates PDF417 barcodes with a input and saves the barcode-image to file.
Now we've found out that non-readable characters are not stored in the barcode as we want... .How can I ensure, that these characters stay in the barcode?Do I use the EncodingMode for that (e.g. set it to byte)?
What is the best way of testing this? - At the moment we just use a app on our smartphones.
Best regards
Stefan Schmitt
Hello Stefan,
Thank you for your post!
I have been looking into your issue and it seems that I am missing something from your scenario. Would you please provide me with an example for non-readable characters?
I have created a small sample application for you to see the symbols, that the XamPdf417Barcode can encode. There is also a TextBlock, that shows the data, that is currently bound to barcode.
More about the EncodingMode property of the XamPdf417Barcode you can find on the following link from our documentation: http://help.infragistics.com/Help/Doc/WPF/2014.1/CLR4.0/html/InfragisticsWPF4.Controls.Barcodes.v14.1~Infragistics.Controls.Barcodes.CompactionMode.html.
Thank you for the provided information. Looking forward to hearing from you.
I am just checking if you have any further questions on this matter. Please do not hesitate to let me know if you do.
Hello Gergana!
Sorry about that - I forgot to reply with our result!
Setting the EncodingMode as you described works.We may still have to test our solution in detail with our customer, but basically it works!
Thank you for your Support!
I am glad I was able to help. Please do not hesitate to let me know if you have any further questions on this matter.
