ISBN VB .NET Generator - ISBN Size Setting Functionality

1. Generate ISBN with Add-on Symbol

An add-on symbol could be used to accompany an ISBN in our ISBN VB.NET Barcode Component. 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
ISBN with 2-digit supplement barcode:

barcode.Symbology = BusinessRefinery.Barcode.Symbology.ISBN_2

ISBN with 5-digit supplement barcode:

barcode.Symbology = BusinessRefinery.Barcode.Symbology.ISBN_5

3. set ISBN code text to encode

For example, 978654321012:

barcode.Code = "978654321012"

4. set ISBN 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("isbn-in-vbnet.gif")
