You may have to try different fonts to get the desired result.

It is important to understand that prompting the operator is not the same thing as printing labels using

international characters.Prompting is what you see on the screen that facilitates data entry, while

Printing Encoded Data, Per-Printer Method

With barcode label applications traversing all industry segments and becoming more internationalized,

there are increased requirements for printing characters that fall outside of the traditional American

English alphabet character sets. While getting the Operator Input Prompt written in an international

language is relatively easy, getting labels printed using international characters is a different and

sometimes complex matter. Three examples of possible printing methods follow. These examples were

created using typical Native printer fonts and are intended to give you a cursory understanding of this

subject . Keep in mind that if you are using a special TrueType font, such as Wingdings or a Native OCR

type font, the results you get are guaranteed to NOT be what you are looking for.

to do this follows:

Note: The following examples assume the use of the U.S. English Version of Windows, as well as a U.S. English

Keyboard.

Method #1: Using the IBM Extended ASCII Chart

The following example uses the ASCII Extended Chart found in the Reference Tables section of this

guide. Most of the international characters you may want to use are located on this chart, and they work

as displayed with most of the popular Native Fonts.
