Members

Member name Description
AUTO Automatically pick up the best encode mode for Datamatrix encoding
ASCII Encodes one alphanumeric or two numeric characters per byte
BYTES Encode 8 bit values
C40 Uses C40 encoding. Encodes Upper-case alphanumeric, Lower case and special characters
TEXT Uses Text encoding. Encodes Lower-case alphanumeric, Upper case and special characters
EDIFACT Uses EDIFACT encoding. Uses six bits per character, encodes digits, upper-case letters, and many punctuation marks, but has no support for lower-case letters.
ANSIX12 Uses ANSI X12 encoding.
EXTENDED_CODETEXT ExtendedCodetext mode allows to manually switch encodation schemes and ECI encodings in codetext.
It is better to use DataMatrixExtCodetextBuilder for extended codetext generation.
Use Display2DText property to set visible text to removing managing characters.
ECI identifiers are set as single slash and six digits identifier “\000026” - UTF8 ECI identifier
All unicode characters after ECI identifier are automatically encoded into correct character codeset.


Encodation schemes are set in the next format : “\Encodation_scheme_name:text\Encodation_scheme_name:text”.
Allowed encodation schemes are: EDIFACT, ANSIX12, ASCII, C40, Text, Auto.
