.NET Code-39 Generator for .NET, C#, ASP.NET, VB.NET

Create & Generate Code-39 Barcodes in C#, VB.NET, ASP.NET

Code 39 (also known as "USS Code 39", "Code 3/9", "Code 3 of 9", "USD-3", "Alpha39", "Type 39") is a barcode symbology that can encode uppercase letters (A through Z), digits (0 through 9) and a handful of special characters like the $ sign.

Code 39 is restricted to 44 characters. In Full ASCII Code 39 Symbols 0-9, A-Z, "." ,and "-" are the same as their representations in Code 39. Lower case letters, additional punctuation characters and control characters are represented by sequences of two characters of Code 39.

.NET Barcode Code 39 prints:

• 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9
• Uppercase letters (A - Z)
• - (Dash), $ (Dollar), % (Percentage), (Space), . (Point), / (Slash), + (Plus)

.NET Barcode Code 39 Extension prints:

• all 128 ASCII characters

   using BusinessRefinery.Barcode;

   // construct a linear barcode object
   Linear barcode = new Linear();  
    
   // set linear barcode symbolgoy type to Code-39
   barcode.Symbology = Symbology.CODE39;
    
   // set Code-39 code text to encode		      
   barcode.Code = "CSHARP-CODE39-BARCODE";  
    
   //draw barcode and save into image file in gif format   
   barcode.drawBarcode2ImageFile("code-39-in-csharp.gif");    

// construct a linear barcode object
Dim barcode As BusinessRefinery.Barcode.Linear
barcode = New BusinessRefinery.Barcode.Linear()

// set linear barcode symbolgoy to Code-39
barcode.Symbology = BusinessRefinery.Barcode.Symbology.CODE39

// set Code-39 code text to encode	
barcode.Code = "VBNET-CODE39-BARCODE"

//draw barcode and save into image file in gif format  
barcode.drawBarcode2ImageFile("code-39-in-vbnet.gif")

3. How to draw Code-39 barcodes to image files (GIF, JPEG, BMP, PNG, & TIFF)?

            using BusinessRefinery.Barcode;

            Linear barcode = new Linear();
            barcode.Symbology = Symbology.CODE39;
            barcode.Code = "CODE39-BARCODE-CSHARP";
            barcode.drawBarcode2ImageFile("code-39-in-csharp.gif");

4. How to draw & print Code-39 barcodes to .NET objects like Graphics, Stream, Bitmap?

            using BusinessRefinery.Barcode;

            Linear barcode = new Linear();
            barcode.Symbology = Symbology.CODE39;
            barcode.Code = "CODE39-BARCODE-CSHARP";

            barcode.drawBarcode2Stream("Stream object");

            Bitmap barcodeInBitmap = barcode.drawBarcodeOnBitmap();

            barcode.drawBarcodeOnGraphics("Graphics object");
