< > & ” ’ Your XML data stream cannot contain any of the above characters sets. However, if this is part of your data element, you would need to use the following alternate values: & use & < use < > use > ‘ use ' “ use " Example: If you need to print the following - Dr Jekyll & Mr. Hyde - in a XML data stream. It would look like this: <variable name="COMPANY_NAME">Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde</variable> This is true for both text and barcodes. A bar code that supports the & character would also require a change to the XML data stream. Example: If you need to print the following - 123&456 - in a XML data stream. It would look like this: <variable name="BARCODE_DATA">123&456</variable>
Without all of the correct parts of the necessary XML data stream no bar code will print. & the word amp and the ; (semicolon) are all required for the bar code to print. |
