LEADTOOLS Barcode Module functions allow you to read barcodes, write barcodes and find duplicate barcodes within an image.

LEADTOOLS Barcode features provide support for adding barcode recognition technology to applications developed with LEADTOOLS toolkits. LEADTOOLS Barcode Module functions allow you to read barcodes, write barcodes and find duplicate barcodes within an image.

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.

This module allows programmers to easily include code in their applications to read and write Linear (1D), DataMatrix (2D), PDF417 (2D), MicroPDF 417 (2D) and QR Code barcodes. It includes support for 100 types and sub-types. LEADTOOLS 1D Linear (read/write) support includes read/write support for GS1 Databar (formerly RSS14) and GS1 Databar (formerly RSS14) Expanded on multiple lines (Stacked version).

LEADTOOLS Barcode Modules add on to the LEADTOOLS Raster, Document, Vector and Medical Imaging toolkits.

Key Features:

• Read multiple barcodes at any orientation using a scanner or camera with frame-grabber.

• High-speed barcode recognition. All barcodes in an image are located and reported back in fractions of  a second. Accurate barcode reading and writing. Read colored barcodes.

• Write barcodes to any supported raster image file or to any windows-compliant printer.

• Encode thousands of characters per barcode symbol with 2D barcode technology.

• Read barcodes from or write barcodes to selected regions of interest

• Read and write barcodes with specified colors

• 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.

• Report comprehensive information with 100% confidence for all detected barcodes such as the barcode type, data string, location, check digit, etc.

• Thread Safe for multithreaded applications.

• Includes all popular barcode types.

• Integrate LEADTOOLS' extensive image processing technologies for complete control over your barcode recognition process.

Supported Environments:

The module comes in Win32 and x64 editions that can support development of software applications for any of the following environments:

• Windows Vista

• Windows XP

• Windows 2000
