Using ZPL script, I have to generate a barcode with GS1-128 (formally known as Code 128, UCC/EAN 128).
The problem is, it is generating barcode but a number is not correct from the middle of the barcode.

^FD(01)90717497100536(3202)0090(11)210716(21)9000000014^FS
^XZ
But in output, it generates a barcode (01)90717497100535(3202)0090(11)210716(21)9000000014
535 instead of 536.
Any idea?
It is fixed by adding additional zero to start.

You have wrongly calculated check digit - it is 5 as printer corrects you. This correction may be turned off, but I am not sure about that and I would never recommend turning it off. GTIN with wrong check digit is not valid. To wrap it up, the generated code is correct, just check your input GTINs to see if they have correct check digits.

I am trying to make a ZPL Label with Code 128. My issue is that I would like to alter the human readbale interpretation line under the barcode. Normally, it gets printed as what it is encoded, i want to add spaces after 5 characters (as picture).
enter image description here
I was able to do it in Zebra designer but we have to store the label as ZPL and if I export the .prn file it gets encrypted and i get always the same barcode printed, which in my case is not correct.
I tried to turn off BC interpretation line and used ^FN to print interpretation line and do some formatting on it but after going through internet and ZPLII manuals , I am unable to find anything.
content of .prn file, i am getting:

I'm new to Pentaho and have a little problem with the Text file Input.
Currently I have to have several data records written to a database. In the files, the decimal numbers are separated by a point.
Pentaho is currently transforming the number 123.3659 € to 12.33 €.
Can someone help?
When you read the file, do you read it as a csv, excel or something like that? If that's the case, then you can specify the format of the column to interpret the number correctly (I think, I'm talking from memory now) Or maybe playing with the language of the file might work.
If it's a file containing a string, you can use some step like the string operator to replace the point with a comma.
This problem might come from various reasons.
Although I think that by following the next steps you can solve the issue.
-First, you must get a "Replace in String" step;
-Then search for the dot and replace it with nothing as I show in the following image, or with a coma if the number you show is a float;

Hope this helped!
Give feedback if so!
Have a good day!
I'm using IDEA 13.0.1. A unit test is failing because of some line separator stuff. But when I try to compare the two results, IDEA says "Contents have differences only in line separators".
And I can't find a setting where I can say show me these differences. Is there one?
I ran into the same issue, I couldn't find a way to show the difference by clicking show differences, but if you put a break point and look at the strings, they have the line separator written out. For me one string had \n and one had \r\n. \r is also a possible line separator.
I ran into the same problem recently. I found a workaround for it, is not that pretty but did the job:
yourString.replaceAll("\n", "").replaceAll("\r", "");
The key is in what #user1633977 said.
To solve this problem, always use System.lineSeparator() to create your separators. That way they will always be the same and will be OS-independant.
(Remember that different OS can use different symbols as line separators).
I am sending CPCL commands from a handheld device to a Zebra QL220 printer to print barcode labels. It seems that when the barcode prints, the barcode value is correct (it incorporates/appends the check digit to the machine-readable swath of vertical black (and/or white) stripes), but the check digit is not incorporated/appended to the Text representation (below the barcode).
IOW, the barcode may represent "123456789014" but the text value is "12345678901" (it's lacking the check digit).
Is there an easy way to "turn this on," such as via one of the flags sent to the printer via CPCL, or will I have to manually manipulate the Text value to display the check digit appended to the barcode?
Looking through the CPCL manual (page 5.17: https://support.zebra.com/cpws/docs/comtec/PROMAN-CPCL_RevY.pdf ) and the ZPL manual (https://support.zebra.com/cpws/docs/zpl/zpl_manual.pdf), there appears to be no documented command flag that will cause a printer to print the checksum in the barcode interpretation line. I think you will have to include it yourself.
I'm trying to process a fixed width input file in pentaho and validate the format. The file will be a mixture of strings, numbers and dates. However when attempting to process a number field that has an incorrect character present (which i had expected would throw an error) it just reads the first part of the number and ignores the bad char.
I can recreate this issue with a very simple input file containing a single field:
I specify the expected number format, along with start position and length:
On running the transformation i would have expected the 'Q' to cause an error instead the following result is displayed, just reading the first two digits "67" and padding the rest to match the specified format:
If the input file is formatted correctly it runs perfectly well, but need it to throw an error otherwise. Any suggestions would be awesome. Thanks!
Just an FYI in case someone stumbles accross this question after hitting the same issues as myself.
I was able to construct a workaround by reading all values in the "Text File Input" step as strings, and then using a "Data Validator" step equipped with regex evaluation to ensure numbers were correctly formatted before parsing to number type with a following "Select Values" step.
Takes a bit longer to do this for every field, but was the most robust solution i could come up with.
Thanks
