Generating PDF417 barcodes - there is an extra character in the generated code

[ghost]

Hi there,

I'm generating PDF417 barcodes. The problem is that in the result there is an extra character, for example if you try to generate a code from this sequence: XI005016788760, and you are scanning the generated code the result will be XI005016788760]. So there is an extra "]" at the end. I've tried with multiple scanners, the result is the same, so I think the problem is with the generation itself.

Works like a charm, thanks a lot!

How do you specify UTF-16? I'm having trouble reading the PDF417s my app is generating. If the encoded message is all lower case letters, it seems to work fine, but numbers, for example, make the barcode unreadable. I'm wondering if I need to do some extra configuration to make PDF417s encode properly?

Sorry, you're right, I meant to say "UTF-8", not "UTF-16"
