Hello all,

I am new to the Lead Tools line of products. I want to be able to scan a barcode on a well with a barcode scanner (2d datamatrix) and use the lead tools to read the encoded string inside of my application.

How do I access the image from the scanner/reader and use it with the lead barcode sdk? Im starting from scratch and I cant seem to find anywhere online that shows how to do this.

Thoughts?

Thanks!

LEADTOOLS toolkit does not communicate directly with any
hardware barcode readers. It can detect barcodes inside computer image files stored on Windows machines, and it can write barcodes on such images.

If you are using a regular image scanner that has a
standard Twain driver, you can use our toolkit to acquire the image then use our barcode functions to detect the barcode inside it

LEADTOOLS does not sell any hardware barcode scanners. Our barcode support is all software based, but without the specific hardware dependencies you may find with other vendors.

With the release of LEADTOOLS v18, we now support Android and iOS devices. When including this with our Windows Phone support, there are a wide variety of hand-held devices that LEADTOOLS can be used with to decode barcodes.

If you have not done so already, I would highly recommend downloading the latest LEADTOOLS evaluation to test out our latest barcode engine support. You can find more information here:
