EAN-8 - Brief Introduction
EAN-8 is the short version of EAN. It is is derived from the longer EAN-13. It was introduced for use on small packages where an EAN-13 barcode would be too large; for example on cigarettes, pencils (though it is rarely used for pencils), and chewing gum packets.

EAN-8 VB .NET Generator - EAN-8 Size Setting Functionality
1. Generate EAN-8 with Add-on Symbol
In EAN-8 Barcode Library for VB.NET, an add-on symbol could be added to an EAN-8 barcode with VB class. The add-on symbol is used to provide supplement information such as issue number and product price.
1. construct a linear barcode object
Dim barcode As BusinessRefinery.Barcode.Linear
barcode = New BusinessRefinery.Barcode.Linear()
2. Select the digits of the supplement barcode by seting linear barcode symbology
EAN-8 with 2-digit supplement barcode:
barcode.Symbology = BusinessRefinery.Barcode.Symbology.EAN8_2
EAN-8 with 5-digit supplement barcode:
barcode.Symbology = BusinessRefinery.Barcode.Symbology.EAN8_5
3. set EAN-8 code text to encode
For example, 98765432:
barcode.Code = "98765432"
4. set EAN-8 supplement code text to encode
For example, 21:
barcode.SupplementCode = "21"
5. draw barcode and save into image file in gif format
For example, Gif:
barcode.drawBarcode2ImageFile("ean8-in-vbnet.gif")
