Shown above is the Barcode Data tab of the Barcode Properties dialog box. The
Code Data input box is where the data for the barcode is entered. This data will be
encoded in the barcode itself. To the right of the barcode is a button with three dots on it.
Selecting this button will bring up a list of available data fields, timestamps and shift
codes. Selecting one of these fields will add it to the barcode data. The barcode shown
on the layout will be the rendering of this data. If there is invalid data in this field the
barcode will not render and the Sample Data field should be filled with valid sample data.
For most barcodes, if a check digit is defined it will be calculated automatically if
the length of the barcode data is appropriate. For example, for EAN13, if twelve digits
are entered, the thirteenth digit is calculated automatically. If thirteen digits are entered,
it is assumed the data includes the pre-calculated check digit.
If the Sample Data field is filled, the barcode in the layout screen will be rendered
with this data. The final print barcode, including print previews, will not use this data.
The Encoding Mode is used for 2D barcodes that allow multiple code pages. The
default code page is ANSI.
The Format field is used to format the input data to the barcode. For example, if
additional numbers or characters are always present in a barcode they can be added in
the format field. It is also possible to include certain required data for all barcodes. If no
format is entered, the data is used directly as entered or loaded at print time from any
data fields, timestamps or shift codes.
