x-media Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 newbie alert! Hello, I am creating a barcode (code128) for tickets in Fusion Pro. I have used the "Barcode Rule 128" in the Rule Editor with two variables: first variable is just a serial number and the second variable is a mix of letters (capitals) and numbers. My first barcode is: var1: 326000001 var2: Z6VO7WJ1HU8CD1OFZNH06SR When I press the "Validate" button in the editor I get the following result: <span><f name="IDAutomationC128M">Ã3«:¬¬!»Z6VO7WJ1HU8CD1OFZNH06SRgŒ</span> What puzzles me is that I can identify there "var2" but "var1" seems to be corrupted. Am I wrong here? I have no idea whats going on... Thanks in advance! Martin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Korn Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 I wouldn't assume that the barcode data is corrupted just because it's not passed through verbatim in plain text. The whole idea is that it's encoded in a particular way to be printed in the barcode font. So if you print and scan it, does it return the right data? That's really the only test.

x-media Posted February 24, 2011 Author Share Posted February 24, 2011 Thanks Dan, good to hear that! We will send a test print to the client, because we have no scanner... Meanwhile I have created a barcode online with the same variables and it looks - slightly - different... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
