InterFormNG2 Manual

If you want to insert a GS1 Databar barcode (formerly known as rss-14) in a template, then you need to insert a barcode element, where you select this as the barcode type:

 

NG2GS1Databar0001

 

 

The parameters are:

(The headers are links to the common description).

 

Data

The data, that you want to put into the barcode.

 

Preview placeholder

Here you can enter a text constant for the data, that you want to use for the barcode in the result view in the designer.

 

Module width

The width of the lines of the barcode. This is rounded to up to a whole number of dots in the selected output resolution (DPI). For the mime types, ZPL and Direct protocol the resolution/DPI is set on the printer and for PCL/PDF output the resolution is set on the template element in the template.

 

Display text

Enable this to display the data of the barcode also a human readable text.

 

Text placement

This has only effect, if the Display text option above is enabled. The possible values are:

BOTTOM: Display the text below the barcode.

TOP: Display the text above the barcode.

 

Databar mode

Here you select the type of barcode. The two possible values are:

OMNI: An omnidirectional barcode with a single row (like shown above) is generated.

STACKED: The barcode will be stacked (multiple rows).

 

Please note that in 'stacked' format the Databar height is about double height of the specified bar height, since two sets of bars are on top of each other.  The ZPL version of this also looks a little different, due to a limited number of settings in ZPL.

 

Error handling

How InterFormNG2 should react, if the data used cannot be converted into the barcode e.g. because of unsupported characters.
