Aspose::BarCode::Generation::DataMatrixEncodeMode enum

DataMatrixEncodeMode enum

DataMatrix encoder’s encoding mode, default to Auto.

enum class DataMatrixEncodeMode

Values

Name	Value	Description
Auto	0	In Auto mode, the CodeText is encoded with maximum data compactness. Unicode characters are re-encoded in the ECIEncoding specified encoding with the insertion of an ECI identifier. If a character is found that is not supported by the selected ECI encoding, an exception is thrown.
ASCII	1	Encodes one alphanumeric or two numeric characters per byte.
Bytes	6	Encode 8 bit values.
C40	8	Uses C40 encoding. Encodes Upper-case alphanumeric, Lower case and special characters.
Text	9	Uses Text encoding. Encodes Lower-case alphanumeric, Upper case and special characters.
EDIFACT	10	Uses EDIFACT encoding. Uses six bits per character, encodes digits, upper-case letters, and many punctuation marks, but has no support for lower-case letters.
ANSIX12	11	Uses ANSI X12 encoding.
ExtendedCodetext	12
Extended	13
Base256	14	Encode 8 bit values.
Binary	15	In Binary mode, the CodeText is encoded with maximum data compactness. If a Unicode character is found, an exception is thrown.
ECI	16	In ECI mode, the entire message is re-encoded in the ECIEncoding specified encoding with the insertion of an ECI identifier. If a character is found that is not supported by the selected ECI encoding, an exception is thrown. Please note that some old (pre 2006) scanners may not support this mode.

Remarks

This sample shows how to do codetext in Extended Mode.

[C#]
//Auto mode
string codetext = "犬Right狗";
using (var generator = new BarcodeGenerator(EncodeTypes.DataMatrix, codetext))
{
    generator.Parameters.Barcode.DataMatrix.ECIEncoding = ECIEncodings.UTF8;
    generator.Save("test.bmp");
}

//Bytes mode
byte[] encodedArr = { 0xFF, 0xFE, 0xFD, 0xFC, 0xFB, 0xFA, 0xF9 };
using (var generator = new BarcodeGenerator(EncodeTypes.DataMatrix))
{
    generator.SetCodetext(encodedArr);
    generator.Parameters.Barcode.DataMatrix.DataMatrixEncodeMode = DataMatrixEncodeMode.Binary;
    generator.Save("test.bmp");
}


//Extended codetext mode
//create codetext
DataMatrixExtCodetextBuilder textBuilder = new DataMatrixExtCodetextBuilder();
codetextBuilder.AddECICodetextWithEncodeMode(ECIEncodings.Win1251, DataMatrixEncodeMode.Bytes, "World");
codetextBuilder.AddPlainCodetext("Will");
codetextBuilder.AddECICodetext(ECIEncodings.UTF8, "犬Right狗");
codetextBuilder.AddCodetextWithEncodeMode(DataMatrixEncodeMode.C40, "ABCDE");

//generate codetext
string codetext = textBuilder.GetExtendedCodetext();    <br>

//generate
using(BarcodeGenerator generator = new BarcodeGenerator(EncodeTypes.DataMatrix, codetext))
{
    generator.Parameters.Barcode.DataMatrix.DataMatrixEncodeMode = DataMatrixEncodeMode.Extended;
    generator.Save("test.bmp");
}
