Extended Channel Interpretations (ECI) Encoding
Warning
Do not use these codes, if you plan to decode your barcodes on smartphones.
Do not use any ECI codes in StrokeScribe barcode generator unless your recipient asks you about it or you are 100% sure your equipment is ECI-compatible.
To encode national alphabet characters, use UTF-8 encoding for smartphones or just pass the text into the barcode generator in your national code page (used in some warehousing software, postal and bakning systems).
To enable UTF-8 encoding in the barcode generator, set CodePage to 65001.
