queXF

no barcode detected when testing form compatibility

Asked by Davor Zoricic

Hi,

I'm trying to import a new form I'd like to use with the queXF but I got stuck on the first step as I can't seem to get the program to detect the barcode on the form.
I'm using Interleaved 2 of 5 and I think I placed it well on the page. I compared it to the test example that works.
The Interleaved 2 of 5 prints 8 digits when I write down 4 so I think that's ok. I even tried hiding the numbers that appear beneath the code but that didn't work.

Could you please tell me what I'm missing.

I'm not using the XML to create a form. I can e-mail the pdf form I'd like to use.

Regards,
Davor

Dear Davor,

When you import the form using "Test form compatibility" in queXF - is the barcode detected? If it is, make sure the number of digits matches: define('BARCODE_LENGTH_PID',8);

If you are still running in to trouble, please email me the form directly and I'll have a look.

Dear Adam,
I added parentheses to my barcode: "(" as the start symbol and ")" as the end symbol. The font I am using to generate the Interleaved 2 of 5 barcode is now producing the barcode as it should.
QueXF detected the barcode and the problem seems to be solved.
Thank you!
Davor
