GS1 Encoding
Labels.NET 2D only
If the data string for a Datamatrix barcode begins with an FNC1 character - ASCII 232 (è) - or the GS1_Flag is on (as set in the Datamatrix barcode Properties dialog or programmatically by the Set2DMenu() method, the data is scanned for GS1 Application Identifiers and encoded according to the GS1 Datamatrix specification.
GS1 encoding requires the Application Identifiers to be provided within brackets in the data, eg. (80)12345678(10)123456 so that the AIs can be identified.
Variable length AIs will have FNC1 characters inserted to terminate the AI and all brackets are removed from the encoded data.
During scanning FNC1 characters are replaced by ASCII values of 29.
