EAN-128 Barcode Introduction
EAN-128 (also known as: EAN-128, UCC-128, USS-128, UCC.EAN-128, and GTIN-128) is developed to provide a worldwide format and standard for exchanging common data between companies. It is a variable-length linear barcode with high density.
EAN-128 Encodable Character Set
  • 0-9
  • A-Z
  • a-z
  • Special characters: space $ % + - . /

How to Generate EAN-128 Barcode in ASP.NET Project
  1. First of all, you need to open your Visual Studio and create a new ASP.NET project.
  2. Then, you may copy "barcode.aspx" and "barcode.aspx.cs" in "barcode" folder to your project folder.
  3. Next, you should add "KeepAutomation.Barcode.Web.dll" to your project reference.
  4. What's more, you need to drag and drop "BarCodeControl" in Toolbox to the aspx page to generate the EAN-128 barcode image.
  5. Finally, choose EAN128 barcode type in the Properties panel and debug to see the created EAN-128 barcode image.
We offer a guide for you to generate EAN-128 barcode image in IIS.
  1. Unzip the downloaded trial package and copy "barcode" folder in it to your IIS web application folder.
  2. Establish a new virtual directory (named as "barcode").
  3. Restart your IIS and navigate to "http://YourDomain:port/barcode/barcode.aspx?code-to-encode=(00)0128&symbology=11".
  4. To insert barcodes in html or aspx pages, refer to:
    <img src="http://YourDomain:port/barcode/barcode.aspx?code-to-encode=(00)0128&symbology=11"/>
  5. Simply customize your generated EAN-128 barcode image through the above URL.
How to Insert EAN-128 Barcode in .NET WinForms
  1. Unzip the downloaded evaluation package of .NET EAN-128 barcode generator online.
  2. Add KeepAutomation.Barcode.Windows.dll in the unzipped package to the Toolbox.
  3. Drag and drop the BarCodeControl from the Toolbox into the form.
  4. Choose "EAN128" as "Symbology" in Properties window.
  5. View the generated EAN-128 barcode image and change its other properties through the Properties window.
