I'd like to generate a GS1-128 barcode like this

    (01)5410413901026(17)170612(10)LOT100

in ZPL code

    ^BY5,3,160^FT372,1506^BCB,,N,N,N
    ^FD>;>8015410413901026>817170612>810>6LOT100^FS

My problem is the 01 code is normally exactly 14 digits, here my EAN is only 13 digits. So my barcode is misformed.

I have already tried to put >8 at the begin of every new AI without result.

EAN is always 13 digits. Add a leading zero to convert to a 14-digit GTIN. (A digit other than 0 at the start identifies a wholesale container of the item.)

Parentheses and spaces can be in the field data. '00' application identifier, followed by 17 characters, followed by bogus check digit place holder.

I have verified the barcode from https://zxing.org/w/decode and https://online-barcode-reader.inliteresearch.com/
