Problem creating a scannable PDF417 barcode in Crystal Reports

Hi Support

I'm creating a PDF417 barcode using the Crystal report

I need to reproduce a barcode of another application.

The text I have to display as a barcode is

[)>$1E0612SGTLVWAG012L211L601031JUN000000000116884700PVersilok265B0000FAAS12S9945640114D201505011T0011429496$!

and the image is this

I'm using the following CR formula ( the one provided by you in your samples )


//IDAutomation’s example formula to display PDF417 barcodes
StringVar CompleteBarcodeString:="";
stringVar DataToEncode:="[)>$1E0612SGTLVWAG012L211L601031JUN000000000116884700PVersilok265B0000FAAS12S9945640114D201505011T0011429496$!";

NumberVar i:=0;
NumberVar Segments:=
IDAutomationPDF417EncoderPDFSet(DataToEncode,0 ,0 ,0 ,0 ,1 ,0);
For i:=0 to Segments Do
(
CompleteBarcodeString := CompleteBarcodeString +
IDAutomationPDF417EncoderPDFGet(i);
);
CompleteBarcodeString

The image created by CR is this

The two images are different and the second one could not be read by the scanner that is able to read the first one

Could you help me with this?

Best regards

Operating System: Windows

Application: Crystal Report

I was able to read the second image but not the first, though the quality of the barcode is not very good. Based on the information, it appears that the settings for the two barcodes are different. I will attempt to create the barcode using the PDF417 Font and Encoder Package

Can you provide all of the settings for the original barcode including?

• Data (again)
• Encoding Mode
• Columns setting
• Rows setting
• Error Correction Level
