3. Download the Crystal Reports Barcode Font Encoder UFL.
4. Extract the IDAutomation_CrystalUFL.zip file and then run the included .exe file that begins with IDAutomation_CrystalUFL. This will install the DLL's to the proper Windows Systems folders automatically.
5. Included in the zip file are folders for distribution if needed to install on multiple computers on the network.

Alternate method of installation would be to place the IDAutomation 32bit Linear UFL DLL in the following folder: C:Program Files (x86)SAP BusinessObjectsSAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0win32_x86 folder.

Barcode UFL Usage Instructions

NOTE: In most IDAutomation font packages, a Crystal Report example or a Font Encoder Formula is provided in the package for an easier implementation. IDAutomation recommends using the Font Encoder Formula Tutorial before trying to use the UFL directly as described here. Therefore, the tutorial described here should be performed only by advanced users and developers.

1. Access the report in Crystal Reports.
2. Choose the Design tab to enter the design mode of the report.
3. Open the Field Explorer (In Crystal 9, select View - Field Explorer. In versions prior to 9, select Insert - Formula Field).
   
4. Right-click on Formula Fieldsand select New.
   
5. In the Formula Name dialog box, enter a name to identify the formula field. In this example, the formula is simply named 'Barcode.'
   
6. Click OK and select Use Editor if asked. The Formula Editor should now be open.
7. In the Functionscolumn, expand the Additional Functions then expand the Visual Basic UFLs section to select the appropriate function:
   Newer versions will find the Barcode Functions under Additional Function/COM and .NET UFLs (u212.com.dll)
   
8. With the cursor positioned between the parentheses of the function, select the data field that is to be encoded. Data fields used in this formula must be formatted as text. If the data fields are not text, use ToText or cStr for conversion. The syntax of the formula should look similar to one of the formulas below:
   • Static Text (useful in testing scenarios): IDAutomationCode128 ('ABC 123!', true)
   • Dynamic Data source: IDAutomationCode128 ({Table1.Field1}, true)
   • Dynamic Data source (non-text field): IDAutomationCode128 (cStr({Table1.Field1}, 0), true)
9. Choose Save and then Close.
10. To include a text interpretation of the encoded data below the barcode, consider creating an additional formula field using the function IDAutomationUniC128HR, which returns the human-readable (HR) text.
    For example, to display the human-readable (HR) interpretation of {Table1.Field1} as GS1-128 text, the field BarcodeHR is created with the formula IDAutomationUniC128HR ({Table1.Field1}, true).
11. Return to the Field Explorer dialog box.
12. Click on the formula field and drag it onto the report.
    In the graphic above, the @Barcode formula produces formatted data for Code 128 and the @BarcodeHR formula produces the human-readable, as shown in the graphic below.
    
13. Once the fields are created, choose the Preview tab to verify the data is pulled and properly formatted to the barcode font.
    Note: Depending on the symbology used, unrecognizable characters may appear as the data from the fields - this is the formatted data.
    
14. Select the Design tab again and size the barcode formula field to display the appropriate barcode font in the report.
15. Change the formula field to the appropriate barcode font and set the size to 12 points or another appropriate size.
    Ensure the formula used matches the font listed in the Format Editor. For example, only use the IDAutomationCode128() function with the IDAutomationC128 font. This is a very important step because the barcodes will not be properly created if this step is performed incorrectly.
    
16. Select the Preview tab (or File - Print Preview) to view the barcodes in the report. Print one page of the report and test it with a scanner.
    Consider testing with the easy-to-use IDAutomation USB Barcode Scanner, which reads all popular linear and GS1 DataBar barcodes. When 2D Data Matrix, PDF417, QR Code, Aztec or Intelligent Mail symbols need to be verified, IDAutomation suggests the IDAutomation 2D Barcode Scanner.

UFL Barcode Functions List

The methods listed below are available in the Linear UFL, serve as the application programming interface (API), and are valid only when used with the font listed in the Font to Use column.

* Using this font may require a Line Spacing Adjustment if white lines appear in the symbol.

Function Part Descriptions

• ApplyTilde: If set True, characters following the tilde may be used to perform additional functions.
• DataToEncode: A string value that represents the data being encoded.
• N_Dimension: Determines the width of the wide bars when applicable, which is a multiple of the X dimension. Valid values are 2, 2.5 and 3. The default is 2. The X dimension is determined by the font point size.
• IncludeCheckDigit: A Boolean value that determines whether a check digit should be automatically calculated and included for the DataToEncode.
• Segments: Reducing segments to a low even number such as 4, 6 or 8 in a DataBar Expanded symbol can create a stacked barcode. The default is 22.

Symbology-Specific Notes

DataBar Expanded Stacked:

This procedure inserts a formula field for DataBar Expanded Stacked symbols and is compatible with Crystal Reports version 9 and up. This is a necessary step to ensure that DataBar Expanded Stacked symbols are created properly in Crystal Reports.

• In the report and choose View - Design to switch to design mode.
• Select the code below and copy it to the clipboard:

• Return to the report and choose Edit - Paste to paste the field where it is desired.
• Highlight the field and choose Edit - Edit Formula.
  • Modify the DataToEncode:= line of the formula to equal the data that is to be encoded in the barcode.
  • Change the Segments:= 4; line of the formula to equal the number of segments needed.

Formulas to Combine Multiple Fields or Encode Functions

Functions may be easily modified with formulas to combine multiple fields or append text in a single barcode, as demonstrated in the following examples:

• This formula appends the text 'Barcode', combines two fields in a single barcode and places a tab function (which is ASCII 009) between them:
  IDAutomation_Code128 ( 'Barcode' & {Table1.DataField1} & '~009' & {Table1.UPC}, TRUE)
• This formula adds in the GS1-128 Application Identifier (~202) and calculates a MOD 10 check digit.
  IDAutomation_Code128 ('~202' & {Table1.DataField1} & '~m19', TRUE )

UFL Redistribution

UFL Installation is automatic when running the included installer. Silent installations are also available for all associated font developer licenses with source code to build custom installations. The included source code supports automatic registration of both 32 and 64 bit systems in the 2.0 and 4.0 CLR.

The following are the suggested files, installation locations, and registration commands to aid in the redistribution of the UFL with a custom application or when installing manually.

Notes:

• The Linear UFL is referenced in the chart below; when using 2D UFLs such as QR-Code, Data Matrix or PDF417, dated 2014 or later, only the names of the UFLs will be different. All of the other registration processes described are the same.
• The user performing the install must have Administrator rights to install barcode fonts register the Linear UFL.
• The UFL requires the Microsoft .NET Framework version installed be 2.0 or greater.
• This UFL supports the 2 primary versions of the .NET Common Language Runtime (CLR):
  • CLR 2.0: .Net 2.0, 3.0, and 3.5
  • CLR 4.0: .Net 4.0 and 4.5.x
• The UFL, unlike its Win32 counterparts, is not dependent on a specific file location (as in a Windows System folder) for its installation. Instead, it is registered in place with the corresponding assembly registration (RegAsm) commands. The installation locations below are suggested purely for consistency with standard practice.
• While the Linear UFL may be registered in the Global Assembly Cache (GAC), GAC registration not a replacement for the RegAsm registrations and has no discernible benefit. Therefore, GAC registration is not needed and is outside the scope of this documentation.
• The 32bit and 64bit Linear UFL file names are required to be the same, as the report that references the functions expect the same file name across all versions (and varieties) of Crystal Reports in which it runs.
• The QR-Code UFL has the ability to log error messages. The .log file name will start with IDAutomation_UFL_Error and will be located in the user's Temp* directory. If the log file cannot be found, none was generated and it was not a UFL error in itself.
  *The user may enter %TEMP% in the Run command or in an Explorer address bar.

* %windir% is the Windows directory, which can be found by pressing Windows + R > type in %windir% > Enter
