C# UPC-E Generator Library
C# Imaging - UPC-E Generator DLL Control

C# Imaging - UPC-E Generator SDK Overview

C# Linear UPC-E Barcode Creator DLL is a multifunctional C#.NET barcode SDK, which can not only help C# developers create & add standard UPC-E barcode on source document or image file but also allow developers to customize created UPC-E barcode as an independent image object on target file using Visual C# code.

Here we provide a brief benefit list of this C#.NET UPC-E barcode generator library control.

100% managed .NET library that create & insert UPC-E barcode on images and documents using C# code

Use the application of X & Y to adjust the position of created UPC-E barcode on target file in C#.NET class application

Support UPC-E barcode creation and drawing on Bmp, Png, Gif, Jpeg, Tiff, Word, PDF, Excel and PPTX files in C#.NET

Support other linear and 2d barcodes generation and insertion on document or image file, like UPC-A and Data Matrix

C# Code for Customizing UPC-E Barcode Generation

You can easily generator UPC-E barcode and save it  to image files/object using this C#.NET barcode generator control. The following steps will show how to create a UPC-E type barcode encoding numeric data text "012345" into the image object with XImage.Barcode.Creator.

            barcode.AutoResize = true;

            //convert barcode to a bitmap and save it to image file
            //Bitmap bmp = barcode.ToImage();
            //bmp.Save(@"C:\barcode.bmp");

            return barcode;
        }

Add UPC-E Barcode to Image in C#

As mentioned above, RasterEdge UPC-E C# barcode creator DLL can generate UPC-E barcode and draw created UPC-E on BMP, PNG, GIF, JPEG image files. Here we offer a C# programming example to explain how to draw standard UPC-E barcode on a PNG image file.

private static void AddBarcodeToImage(Linear barcode)
        {
            REImage image = new REImage(inputDirectory + "Sample.png");
            barcode.DrawBarcode(image, 150F, 150F);
            image.Save(ImageType.PNG, outputDirectory + "Sample_Barcode.png");
        }

Complete C# Code for UPC-E Generation on Document & Image

The sample C# code below aims to illustrate how to create and insert a fully user-customized UPC-E barcode on target image file using C#.NET programming method.

// create REImage on which you want to draw the barcode
REImage reImage = new REImage("c:/Sample.png");

Linear barcode = new Linear();// create a barcode
barcode.Type = BarcodeType.UPCE;// select barcode type
barcode.Data = "012345";// set barcode data 

// UPC-E barcode size related
barcode.X = 1.0F;// set x
barcode.Y = 60.0F;// set y
barcode.BarcodeHeight = 60;
barcode.BarcodeWidth = 0;
barcode.BottomMargin = 0;
barcode.LeftMargin = 0;
barcode.RightMargin = 0;
barcode.BarAlignment = AlignmentHori.Center;
barcode.Resolution = 72;// set resolution
barcode.Rotate = Rotate.Rotate0;// set rotation
barcode.AddCheckSum = false;
barcode.UOM = RasterEdge.Imaging.Barcode.Creator.UnitOfMeasure.PIXEL;

// UPC-E colors
barcode.BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.White;
barcode.ForeColor = System.Drawing.Color.Black;

// UPC-E font style
 barcode.TextFont = new Font("Arial", 9f, FontStyle.Regular);
barcode.TextColor = System.Drawing.Color.Black;
barcode.TextMargin = 6;
barcode.ShowText = true;

// UPC-E special
// barcode.SupData = "";
// barcode.SupHeight = 0.8f;
// barcode.SupSpace = 15f;

barcode.DrawBarcode(reImage, 0, 0);// draw barcode on REImage with location x and y

reImage.Save(ImageType.PNG, @"c:/barcode.png");
