Thank you for the reply.

1) I am avoiding XML formatting, everything is pipe delimited.

2)I convert everything to uppercase before encoding.

3)I am not using compression

4)Yes many things are dynamic so I have to use resolveNode.

5)Yes there is a lot of validation and some of it is complex and there is no way around it.

I did find though that moving encoding to the prePrint and preSave works well for performance and that the reason things were not getting encode was because I was doing prePrint and preSave at the barcode level.  I moved encoding to these two methods at the Page level and now I have both the performance I need and the encoding upon print.

The barcode still won't hide itself in reader until printed but I can live with that.
