Strict Mode
GS1-128 is the reference GS1 symbology for AI-based data encoding and logistics use cases.
Strict mode validates known AIs; lenient mode accepts unknown/custom AIs based on GS1 formatting rules.
Below the preview, we show the scanner-output element string and visualize FNC1/GS separators.

◈ GS1 Element String Validator

FNC1 separators are automatically inserted after variable-length AIs to ensure correct parsing.
