Barcode Code128 & Hebrew

Hey,
I am testing Code 128 barcode & IDAutomation_ActiveXFontEncoderDLL on two different machines:

1. Win7, Dutch Regional Settings
2. WindowsXP, Hebrew Regional Settings

I use VB 6 Example program that comes together with ActiveXFontEncoderDLL installation.
A simple test brings two different results. Text string '3057721' is converted to:

1. Í>YhÈ17Î
2. ?>Yh?17?

The first string is correct and the barcode can be scanned, the second one is not correct and cannot be scanned.

Is it possible to make it work on the machine with Hebrew regional settings?

Operating System: Windows 7, & WindowsXP

Best Answer

It is possible that the Hebrew regional setting cannot interpret the start/stop characters for Code 128. Consider switching the setting to one that can interpret Code 128 enoded data OR use the Universal Fonts and Font Encoder.
