ITF Calculations

Tagged With:-

We have the Interleaved 2 of 5 (ITF) Font Package. We use Crystal Reports and the UFL font encoder.

The calculation of the check digit from the ITF code is wrong. We cannot reproduce this error, because the check Digit has been right if we print it again.

Data: value_with_9_digits = 014211122

This is the encoding function we are using: IDAutomation_Uni_I2of5({value_with_9_digits}, 2.5, true)

How do we correct this issue?

Operating System: Windows Terminal Server

Application: Crystal Reports Runtime

James	Best Answer The function being used is in an older (deprecated) version of the UFL. After testing, it turns out the mod10 check digit in that older UFL function is incorrect. Proposed solutions: 1. Set the check digit to false and add a trailing mod10 function, feeding the same data in (if available): IDAutomation_Mod10(DataToEncode) General implementation: • Concatenate the data and the mod10, then store the combined result in a temporary string variable. • Feed the temporary string variable into the function with the check digit property turned off: IDAutomation_Uni_I2of5(tempVariable, 2.5, False) 2. If #1 does not yield the correct results, then implement the updated UFL (which has a completely revised function list and implementation) and use the new Universal ITF function: UniI2of5 (DataToEncode, N_Dimension, IncludeCheckDigit) Posted 8.5 year(s) ago (0) (0) Report Abuse

We want to have the check digit calculated. Our problem is the calculation of the check digit and do not want to turn it off.

According to the older UFL function definition PDF, the Universal Fonts ITF (i2of5) function definition is:

IDAutomation_Uni_I2of5(DataToEncode, N_Dimension, IncludeCheckDigit)

If the check digit is not wanted, change the last property to False.
