RE: Code128 CR/LF

I've never tried encoding a CR/LF in a barcode. Would it need to be the hex value of CR/LF on the client?

X'25' is LF in CCSID 37. Greg's x'0A' is ASCII. If the client is a PC, it probably wouldn't recognize CCSID 37. Although if it's running 5250 emulation I guess it might.

I think a linefeed (LF) is hex '0A'

Can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong?
I am attempting to code a carriage return and line feed into a code128 barcode. My code looks like this:

d cr c const(X'0D')
d lf c const(X'25')

dimen2 = pwd + cr + lf + dimen1;


Print file:

A DIMEN2 30A 1
A BARCODE(CODE128 2 *NOHRI (*WIDTH .-
A 007))

Scan results using a Unitech AS10-U scanner:

********** 10.219”
