When encoding non-printable ASCII functions such as RS, GS, and EOT, IDAutomation recommends testing the result with the Barcode Decoder App because it reveals these characters in the result to verify proper encoding.

To encode functions such as the GS, RS, and EOT in the Label Software:

STEP 1 Set ApplyTilde or ProcessTilde to checked/True.

Place a barcode on the label and double-click the label to enter its Properties.


Code 128
Select the Encoding tab and place a check in the Apply Tilde check box.

PDF417
Select the PDF417 Properties tab and place a check in the Apply Tilde check box.

Data Matrix
Select the Data Matrix tab and place a check in the Apply Tilde check box.

STEP 2 Use the ASCII table to enter the function

Encode GS, RS, and EOT for Code 128 and PDF417

GS is ~029
RS is ~030
EOT is ~004

Example:
[)><RS>06<GS>13V12GG7<GS>1P029-102489-157<GS>NC-411-661478-1<RS><EOT>

Enter the data as:
[)>~03006~d02913V12GG7~0291P029-102489-157~029NC-411-661478-1~030~004


Encode GS, RS, and EOT for Data Matrix, Aztec, and QR Code


GS is ~d029
RS is ~d030
EOT is ~d004

Example:
[)><RS>06<GS>13V12GG7<GS>1P029-102489-157<GS>NC-411-661478-1<RS><EOT>

Enter the data as:
[)>~d03006~d02913V12GG7~d0291P029-102489-157~d029NC-411-661478-1~d030~d004
