Barcode Full ASCII character set

2005-12-23 09:30

I am producing 3of9 barcodes that need the full ascii character set. I receive the error of java.lang.RuntimeException: Illegal character - try using extended mode if you need to encode the full ASCII character set at it.businesslogic.ireport.barcode.BcImage.getBarcodeImage().I know that there is an option to do so with barbecue. I was wondering if anyone knew how to set this with iReport or even within the XML code. Thanks in advance.

the 'real' issue is having unsupported characters (in my case, these were lowercase characters).

 

my solution was just to uppercase the inbound data field.

Hi I am new in this forum and my problem is similar. For my current project I need to use the * character (/u002A) in the barcode expression. The font I am using is 3of9. The problem is ireport is throwing the following error when its filling the report. (No compilation errors)

 

ava.lang.RuntimeException: Illegal character - try using extended mode if you need to encode the full ASCII character set

 

How can I use the extended mode or use full ascii character set with barcodes. So if you guys learned how to do it can you send a reply. I need to get this ASAP since the deadline is strict.

 

Thanks,

Ugur
