I am trying to convert binary data to pdf417 barcode using pdf417bean class of barcode4J. But it is giving me following error
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Non-encodable character detected: Í (Unicode: 205)

Here's a part of codebase I am using
PDF417Bean bean = new PDF417Bean();
bean.doQuietZone(true);
bean.setModuleWidth(UnitConv.in2mm(moduleWidthInches));
bean.setQuietZone(UnitConv.in2mm(quietZoneInches));
bean.setBarHeight(height);
boolean antiAlias = false;
int orientation = 0;
BitmapCanvasProvider canvas = new BitmapCanvasProvider(
dpi, BufferedImage.TYPE_BYTE_BINARY, antiAlias, orientation);
indiciaData = indiciaData.replaceAll("\\s+", "");
byte[] binaryData = Base64.decodeBase64(indiciaData.getBytes());
String base64DecodedMsg = StringUtils.newStringIso8859_1(binaryData);
bean.generateBarcode(canvas, base64DecodedMsg);
canvas.finish();
String mime = MimeTypes.MIME_BMP;
out = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
final BitmapEncoder encoder = BitmapEncoderRegistry.getInstance(mime);
encoder.encode(canvas.getBufferedImage(), out, mime, dpi);
I am using apache commons for conversion from base 64
I tried changing Barcode4J PDF417HighLevelEncoder class and changed encoding to ISO-8859-1 in place of Cp437. I generated a handful of barcodes and they are getting scanned correctly. Looks like it can be changed to support ISO 8859-1.
