One of the supported barcodes in InterFormNG2 is MicroPDF417.

The barcode has these parameters:

The parameters are:

(The headers are links to the common description).

Data

The data, that you want to put into the barcode.

Preview placeholder

Here you can enter a text constant for the data, that you want to use for the barcode in the result view in the designer.

Module width

The width of the small squares of the barcode. This is rounded to up to a whole number of dots in the selected output resolution (DPI). For the mime types, ZPL and Direct protocol the resolution/DPI is set on the printer and for PCL/PDF output the resolution is set on the template element in the template.

Module ratio

The ratio between the height and width of the small boxes/modules, that make up the barcode. A ratio of two means, that the boxes/modules are twice as high as they are wide. The module ratio is rounded up to the possible ratio given the selected output resolution (DPI). Not all ratios are possible as it is not possible to print a part of a dot. For the mime types, ZPL and Direct protocol the resolution/DPI is set on the printer and for PCL/PDF output the resolution is set on the template element in the template.

Layout direction

State if the barcode should have a fixed width or fixed height.

COLUMNS means, that the width is fixed, and is the set as the number of data blocks in the width of the barcode.

ROWS means, that the height is fixed, and the height is set as a number of boxes/modules.

Number of columns or rows

Sets the width or the height depending on the layout direction.

For COLUMNS it sets the width as the number of data blocks. Values in the range 1 to 4 are supported.

For ROWS it sets the number of boxes/modules in the height. Values in the range 4 to 44 are supported.

Error handling

How InterFormNG2 should react, if the data used cannot be converted into the barcode e.g. because of unsupported characters.
