Does not allow for specifying an encoding

opened this issue · comments

This library is only capable of encoding UTF-8 strings. Many external systems that read barcodes require specific encoding such as ISO-8859-1 or Shift_JIS. This is especially true of legacy hardware.

The ability to specify the encoding of the string would make this library much more useful.
