BusinessRefinery .NET Barcode is a .NET Barcode Generator package that generates 1D and 2D barcodes.

Codabar is a linear barcode symbology developed in 1972 by Pitney Bowes Corp. It is also known as Codeabar, Ames Code, NW-7, Monarch, Code 2 of 7, Rationalized Codabar, ANSI/AIM BC3-1995 or USD-4.

.NET Codabar prints 16 letters:
  1. 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9

.NET Barcode Codabar Generator - C#, VB.NET Codabar Generating Sample Code

1. How to generate Codabar barcodes in C# Class?

   using BusinessRefinery.Barcode;

   // construct a linear barcode object
   Linear barcode = new Linear();  
    
   // set linear barcode symbolgoy to code-128
   barcode.Symbology = Symbology.CODE128;
    
   // set code-128 code text to encode		      
   barcode.Code = "9876543210";  
    
   //draw barcode and save into image file in gif format   
   barcode.drawBarcode("C://code-128-in-csharp.gif");    


2. How to generate Codabar barcodes in VB.NET Class?

   // construct a linear barcode object
   Dim barcode As BusinessRefinery.Barcode.Linear
   barcode = New BusinessRefinery.Barcode.Linear()
   
   // set linear barcode symbolgoy to code-128
   barcode.Symbology = BusinessRefinery.Barcode.Symbology.CODE128
   
   // set code-128 code text to encode	
   barcode.Code = "0123456789"
   
   //draw barcode and save into image file in gif format  
   barcode.drawBarcode("C://code-128-in-vbnet.gif")


3. How to draw Codabar barcodes to image files (GIF, JPEG, BMP, PNG, & TIFF)?

            using BusinessRefinery.Barcode;

            Linear barcode = new Linear();
            barcode.Symbology = BarcodeType.CODE128;
            barcode.Code = "9876543210";
            barcode.drawBarcode("C://code-128-in-csharp.gif");

You can draw other file formats, by change file types to .jpg, .bmp, .png, and .tif.



4. How to draw & print Codabar barcodes to .NET objects like Graphics, Stream, Bitmap?

            using BusinessRefinery.Barcode;

            Linear barcode = new Linear();
            barcode.Symbology = BarcodeType.CODE128;
            barcode.Code = "9876543210";

            barcode.drawBarcode2Stream("Stream object");

            Bitmap barcodeInBitmap = barcode.drawBarcode();

            barcode.drawBarcodeOnGraphics("Graphics object");
