Barcode 128 allows several ways to encode the characters and iText tries to 
find the smallest one. It works, doesn't it?

Subject: [iText-questions] FW: Issue with Barcode 128 generated with iText

Hi All,

I have a problem with barcode 128 in PDF generated with iText. I am currently 
using itext-1.2.jar.

Attached are the PDF iText Barcode 128 -1.pdf & iText Barcode 128 -2.pdf 
generated using iText.

My question is the length of the barcode is different for each barcode though 
the numbers of characters are same.

A barcode with 8 characters has a length more than a barcode with 9 characters 
and also the length varies by changing the combination of the characters.

But barcode generated from other system  as seen in the attached document(Zebra 
printer using ZPL code.pdf) has consistent barcode length ie all barcodes 
generated with 8 characters have same length & all barcodes generated with 8 
characters have same length.

Why are the Barcodes generated with iText having varying lengths?
