Barcode Encoding
Encoding (symbology) represents the mapping between messages and barcodes.
You can choose which supported encoding to use by setting the Type parameter of the component. The following table lists the available symbologies and their specifications supported by the Barcode.
If the value of a particular encoding does not meet the expected length or character set, the barcode will not be shown.
