You mention both Vision and reporting, so I’m not sure which one you meant, but I believe both are backed by the same open-source library, which has some escape characters mentioned here:

> <https://github.com/zxing/zxing/blob/master/core/src/main/java/com/google/zxing/oned/Code128Writer.java#L44>

The equivalent text representations would be:

```auto
    private static final char ESCAPE_FNC_1 = 'ñ';
    private static final char ESCAPE_FNC_2 = 'ò';
    private static final char ESCAPE_FNC_3 = 'ó';
    private static final char ESCAPE_FNC_4 = 'ô';

```

They appear to be incorrectly reflected in the text output, but I believe the actual barcode is correct:
