public int XModule { get; set; }
An Int32 that indicate the size of the smallest module when writing a PDF417 barcode in a thousands of an inch. Must be a value greater to or equal to 0. Default value is 30 (0.03 of an inch).
If the value is too small, a minimum of 2 pixels will be used regardless of the value set in XModule.
For more information, refer to Writing Barcodes - Bounds and XModule.
