How to Generate UPC-E in .NET Applications with C# Demo Code

using KeepAutomation.Barcode.Bean;

BarCode upce= new BarCode();
upce.Symbology = KeepAutomation.Barcode.Symbology.UPCE;

// Set UPC-E valid encoding data: 6 numeric digits.
upce.CodeToEncode = "123456";

// Display UPC-E checksum in the human-readable text
upce. DisplayChecksum = true;

// UPC-E unit of measure, Pixel, Cm and Inch supported.
upce.BarcodeUnit = BarcodeUnit.Pixel;

// UPC-E image resolution in DPI.
upce.DPI = 72;

// UPC-E module bar width, ie. Width of the narrowest bar (X dimention), default is 1 pixel.
upce.X = 3;

// UPC-E module bar height (Y dimention)
upce.Y = 60;

// UPC-E margin size, a 10X space is automatically added according to specification.
upce.LeftMargin = 0;
upce.RightMargin = 0;
upce.TopMargin = 0;
upce.BottomMargin = 0;

// UPC-E image orientation: 0, 90, 180, 270 degrees supported

upce.TextFont = new Font ("Arial", 10f, FontStyle. Regular);
upce.TextMargin = 6;

// Print UPC-E barcodes in Png, Jpeg, Gif, Tiff, Bmp, etc. image formats.
upce.ImageFormat = ImageFormat.Png;

// Generate and save UPC-E barcodes to image format
upce.generateBarcodeToImageFile("C://barcode-upce-csharp.gif");

// Create UPC-E barcodes in Stream object
upce.generateBarcodeToStream(".NET System.IO.Stream Object");

// Draw & Print UPC-E barcodes to Graphics object

// Generate UPC-E barcodes & write to byte[]
byte[] barcodeInBytes = upce.generateBarcodeToByteArray();

// Generate UPC-E barcodes & encode to System.Drawing.Bitmap object
Bitmap barcodeInBitmap = upce.generateBarcodeToBitmap();
