BarCode bcCodeEAN128A

rbuser

Hi !
Can someone tell me if it is possible to use the "bcCodeEAN128A" barcode
with TppBarCode ?
I can only find the "bcCode128" in the BarCodeType.

Thanks

Article: Adding new BarCode types

ReportBuilder natively supports the following barcode types:

- Codabar
- Code 128
- Code 39
- EAN-8
- EAN-13
- Interleaved 2 of 5
- PostNet
- UPC-A
- UPC-E


Options for adding new BarCode types:


Find a VCL or ActiveX BarCode component that supports the desired BarCode
type. Adapt the component for use in RB in one of the following ways:

a. Use the third-party BarCode component to export the barcode output to an
image and then use RB's Image component to print the barcode.

b. Write a ReportBuilder "wrapper" component that adapts the third-party
component to work inside the RB Designer. This is the approach used to
integrate the TeeChart component within RB. A "wrapper" component is a
descendant of RB's TppCustomComponent that instantiates and uses a
third-party component to implement the desired rendering. See ppChrt.pas in
the RBuilder\Source directory for an example.


We have had customers use both of the above techniques successfully....

As far as remember, EAN128A is just a subset of characters within EAN128.

So it should be supported by bcCode128 without any change.

I myself use ReportBuilder to generate EAN128 barcodes with great success.
