Detailed Description

DataMatrix encoder's encoding mode, default to AUTO

Member Data Documentation

ANSIX12

const DataMatrixEncodeMode::ANSIX12 = 11

Uses ANSI X12 encoding.

ASCII

const DataMatrixEncodeMode::ASCII = 1

Encodes one alphanumeric or two numeric characters per byte

AUTO

const DataMatrixEncodeMode::AUTO = 0

Automatically pick up the best encode mode for datamatrix encoding

C40

const DataMatrixEncodeMode::C40 = 8

Uses C40 encoding. Encodes Upper-case alphanumeric, Lower case and special characters

CUSTOM

const DataMatrixEncodeMode::CUSTOM = 7

Encode with the encoding specified in BarCodeBuilder.CodeTextEncoding

EDIFACT

const DataMatrixEncodeMode::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.

EXTENDED_CODETEXT

const DataMatrixEncodeMode::EXTENDED_CODETEXT = 12

ExtendedCodetext mode allows to manually switch encodation schemes in codetext. Allowed encodation schemes are: EDIFACT, ANSIX12, ASCII, C40, Text, Auto. Extended codetext example: "\ansix12:ANSIX12TEXT\ascii:backslash must be \ doubled\edifact:EdifactEncodedText" All backslashes () must be doubled in text.

This sample shows how to do codetext in Extended Mode.

$generator = new BarcodeGenerator(EncodeTypes::DATA_MATRIX);
$generator->setCodeText("\\ansix12:ANSIX12TEXT\\ascii:backslash must be \\\\ doubled\\edifact:EdifactEncodedText");
$generator->getParameters()->getBarcode()->getDataMatrix().setDataMatrixEncodeMode(DataMatrixEncodeMode.EXTENDED_CODETEXT);
$generator->getParameters()->getBarcode()->getCodeTextParameters().setTwoDDisplayText("My Text");
$generator->save("test.png");

FULL

const DataMatrixEncodeMode::FULL = 6

Encode 8 bit values

TEXT

const DataMatrixEncodeMode::TEXT = 9

Uses TEXT encoding. Encodes Lower-case alphanumeric, Upper case and special characters
