Different output of 128B

[Priit Tamboom]

Hi!

Thanks for creating Barby!

I'm buzzled about different output of 128B. I mean it's not only different in Barby but some online generators does have two different output.

Barcode: P4LX02633023004100A

First type output of 128B:
* Barby generated (see attachment)
* http://www.barcodesinc.com (example: http://goo.gl/EQpnG)

Second type output of 128B:
* http://barcode.tec-it.com/ (see attachment)
* barcode-generator.org

Do I miss something obvious?

Thanks!

The other barcode is a combination of B and C, here's the Barby equivalent:

Barby::Code128B.new("P4LX#{Barby::Code128::CODEC}02633023004100#{Barby::Code128::CODEB}A")

Thanks, it solves the buzzle and works perfectly!

As barcode nuby, I definitely wouldn't figure out about mixing B and C in the same barcode.

Thanks, you made may day,

Can u post ur code??

Hi,

Sure, a bit simplified:

in controller (first_part, second_part, third_part is just string spited because barcode needs different code in the middle (second_part):

@barcode = Base64.encode64(Barby::Code128B.new(
    "#{first_part}#{Barby::Code128::CODEC}#{second_part}#{Barby::Code128::CODEB}#{third_part}"

And in view:
<img alt="" width='300px' src="data:image/jpeg;base64, @barcode).to_png(:height => 35)) %>"/>

Hope it helps you out,

Cheers,

Priit
