LEADTOOLS 2D Barcode Module Barcode programming SDK Module to detect, decode and write MicroPDF417 barcode symbols.

LEADTOOLS 2D Barcode SDK plug-in includes C DLL, .NET and C++ Class Lib.

With LEADTOOLS MicroPDF417 technology, you can detect, read or write MicroPDF417 barcodes in any of the 150+ supported image formats or images scanned from a scanner with just a couple lines of code. Thousands of customers are using LEADTOOLS in their applications; so, you can be sure that LEADTOOLS is the most comprehensive and robust MicroPDF417 toolkit available. Download a free, fully functioning evaluation SDK, and see for yourself.

MicroPDF417 is a 2D barcode symbology based on PDF417. MicroPDF417 is designed to encode moderate amount of data into a very compact symbol. MicroPDF417 offers more data storage than linear (1D) barcodes, up to 150 bytes, 250 alphanumeric, or 366 numeric digits, and includes an Error Correction Code (ECC) which allows error-free reading even when a symbol has been partially lost or destroyed. It is usually used in conjunction with other GS1 linear barcodes to create composite barcodes

MicroPDF417 Composite Barcodes

MicroPDF is usually used in conjunction with GS1 DataBar to create Composite Code B barcodes. The GS1 Composite Symbology is a group of two barcodes, one linear and one 2 dimensional. The linear barcode usually contains the primary data, while the 2D barcode contains related supplementary data such as expiration date, product weight, etc. Click here for more info on Composite Barcodes.

GS1 Composite Code A barcodes consist of a EAN8, EAN13, UPC-A, UPC-E or GS1 DataBar symbol and a MicroPDF417 symbol.

LEADTOOLS MicroPDF417 2D Barcode (read/write)

• Store up to 150 byte, 250 alphanumeric, or 366 numeric digits in one barcode symbol.
• Full support to all available symbol sizes, together with Error Correction Code (ECC) Levels to fix damaged barcode symbols.
• Read barcodes independent of skew, orientation, flipping.
• Read barcodes anywhere in the image or from region of interest, contained in any supported image file format (over 150 supported), acquired from scanner or digital camera.
• Write to any supported raster format (over 150) into region of interest, print to any inkjet or laser Windows compliant printer.
• Very fast and accurate.
• Read/Write colored barcodes.
• All Compaction Modes: Text, Byte, Numeric.
• Code 128 emulation codewords support to signal the decoder to transmit the symbol's data as if it were encoded in a Code128 symbol.
• Many optional settings give you complete control over your barcode recognition process.
• Integrate LEADTOOLS' extensive image processing technologies for complete control over your barcode recognition process.
• Advanced document cleanup functions to improve recognition of barcodes in images with real world problems.

Fast Barcode Detection

LEADTOOLS barcode recognition is very fast; it outperforms most hardware-supported barcode read products. This software engine permits fast document scanners to maintain full speed while performing barcode recognition operations on the fly for document-indexing purposes.

Developers have the ability to provide optional configuration settings affecting the detection speed, including number of barcodes expected, barcode orientation, and potential location of barcodes. This flexibility in search parameters can improve the speed of barcode detection3
