Re: QRCode and special characters

Hi

I've played with QRCODE a little, not with international characters, though - so i looked up the BARCODE documentation  - it's at this address -

https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/ssw_ibm_i_73/rzakd/rzakdmstptbarco.htm#rzakdmstptbarco__ebctoascii

for 7.3, anyhow.

There is a section on converting the text for QRCODE - your answer might be there - it seems that the text is converted from your job's CCSID to EBCDIC 500, or a couple others, based on a the *CONVERT option you specify. If you don't specify that, it does some kind of "normal" conversion before building the barcode. There's a section with more about what that means.

Hi


Maybe somebody knows this.

How do i transfer special characters like ü, é or õ to a QRCode by keyword
(BARCODE(QRCODE …)

If I define a graphic field in the printer file I get an RNF0659 error.


Thanks for any hint.

Btw. I can do it by an Java program as well and it works! (graphic logo
