LEADTOOLS 2D Barcode Module Barcode SDK to detect, decode and write PDF417 and MicroPDF417 barcode symbols.

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

With LEADTOOLS PDF417 technology, you can detect, read or write PDF417 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 PDF417 toolkit available. Download a free, fully functioning evaluation SDK, and see for yourself.

PDF417 is the most common 2D barcode, and can be used in a variety of applications including Identification cards and inventory management systems. PDF417 offers more data storage than linear (1D) barcodes, up to 1,850 ASCII characters, and includes an Error Correction Code (ECC) which allows error-free reading even when a symbol has been partially lost or destroyed.

  • 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.
  • Support Truncated PDF417.
  • All Compaction Modes: Text, Byte, Numeric.

  • 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 detection.

Application Examples:

  • Manufacturing

    A component with its complete history marked on it will not end up in the wrong assembly.

  • Warehouse

    A label on a box tells what's inside, and not what the database thinks should be inside.

  • Imaging

    Documents with a machine legible symbol do not require OCR processing.

  • Send data by facsimile

    Create field reports with PDF417 barcode symbols and fax them to a central station. ECC makes it error free.

  • Bank checks

    A PDF417 barcode symbol with encrypted user data prevents tampering and is more reliable than OCR.

  • Medical

    Eliminate the database and affix a machine-legible symbol with all of your text to a specimen or drug.

  • Credit and ATM cards

    An optical symbol like PDF417 reads more reliably than a magnetic strip.

  • Identification Badges

    Tamper proof ID holds encrypted data with facial image and fingerprint descriptors.
