Miscellaneous Barcode Symbols
Code 39
Also known as USD-3 and 3 of 9 Code
The Code 39 symbol supports alphanumeric data and is widely used. It is the standard barcode used by the US Department of Defense and the Health Industry Bar Code Council (HIBCC). Code 39 supports the encoding of 43 different alphanumeric characters. LEADTOOLS additionally supports Code 39 "Full ASCII Mode" to support data using all 128 ASCII characters. In LEADTOOLS documentation this is referred to as "Code 39 Extended".
Code 93
Also known as USS-93
The Code 93 symbol is similar to the Code 39 symbol, but offers the advantage of supporting the encoding of 47 different alphanumeric characters. LEADTOOLS additionally supports Code 93 "Full ASCII mode" symbols that encode data structures consisting of all 128 ASCII characters. In LEADTOOLS documentation this is referred to as "Code 93 Extended".
Code 32
Also known as Italian Pharmacode / IMH, Codice 32 Pharmacode / Codice Farmaceutico Italiano / Radix 32 Barcode
The Code 32 symbol is a superset of Code 39 and is used in Italy to identify pharmaceutical products.
Codabar
Also known as Ames Code / USD-4 / NW-7 / 2 of 7 Code
Codabar can encode 16 different characters and is used by US blood banks, photo development laboratories and on FedEx air bills.
Code 11
Also known as USD-8
The Code 11 symbol supports the encoding of 0-9 and the dash (-) character and is used to identify telecommunications hardware.
Patch Code
Patch code symbols are not true barcodes in the sense that patch codes do not encode data. They are used with scanners to separate batch scanning jobs and to control the scanner. Major Types of Linear 1D Barcode
- LEADTOOLS Barcode SDK Modules are the most comprehensive barcode toolkits on the market, supporting both reading and writing of over 100 barcode types and sub-types, including all major 1D and 2D barcodes.
- LEADTOOLS offers the fastest barcode recognition speed. LEADTOOLS Barcode SDK Modules can recognize barcodes faster than other commercial engines. Our superior speed reduces "bottle neck" issues in high speed scanning applications. In addition, you can maximize the benefits of today's high speed processors.
- LEADTOOLS is designed to allow our developers to add new barcode types and barcode "flavors" rapidly. If you find a barcode that we cannot recognize, we will be able to update our engine quickly to add the barcode type.
- LEADTOOLS Barcode SDK Modules can be added on to or are included in LEADTOOLS Document Imaging SDKs. These products include powerful document image processing and enhancement technology to clean noisy or damaged images to improve barcode and OCR accuracy.
- Integrating barcode functionality into your application is very easy - one function to read barcodes and one function to write barcodes. We have sample applications with source code ready for you to cut and paste into your project.
- LEADTOOLS Barcode SDK Modules support both bitonal and color barcode images.
- LEADTOOLS has optimized and trained our barcode engines to provide very high accuracy even on poor quality images. The better the accuracy, the less human interaction that is required resulting in substantial savings of time and money.
- LEADTOOLS offers several other toolkits that can be integrated with the Barcode SDK Modules. These SDKs include many additional imaging features such as extensive image file format support for reading and writing several raster, vector, and document file types, numerous image processing routines, document image clean-up, annotation, compression, scanning, medical imaging components, multimedia components, and mobile device support.
