[shibinthomas]

Hi All,

I need to create bar code in 2/5 format with '.' period should be set as a separator. Example data is  21348.075.016.40 1 

When i giving this value it throws erorr

 java.lang.RuntimeException: . is not a valid character for Standard 2 of 5 encoding

While using iReport 3.0.0 and also in 3.5.2 with barbecue

 

and barcode4j  -->

 

Error filling print... java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Invalid character '. (-1)'. Expected a digit.
net.sf.jasperreports.engine.JRRuntimeException: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Invalid character '. (-1)'. Expected a digit.

 

Dose any one know how can i represent this data -> 21348.075.016.40 1 in 2/5 barcode format.

I am creating the barcodes for DHL Label Generation.

 

Thanks in Advance,

Shibin.

Hi

So, nobody uses iReports for barcode creation?

As for Wikipedia, an Interleaved 2 of 5 can encode only digits (numerical symbols).

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interleaved_2_of_5

The separators and the spaces make sense only for human reading, so if you want to put this text under the barcode, use a textfield, but you need to strip out that symbols from the string used to create the barcode.
