.NET Barcode Application Programming Interface (API)

The following section illustrates how to generate the ConnectCode Barcode Fonts characters using the .Net DLL. Each of the attributes are explained below and the font to use for each barcode is shown in the following table. 


BarcodeFonts barcode = new BarcodeFonts();
barcode.BarcodeType = BarcodeFonts.BarcodeEnum.Code39;
barcode.Data = "1234567";
barcode.CheckDigit = BarcodeFonts.YesNoEnum.Yes;

//Other Options	
//barcode.Extended = BarcodeFonts.YesNoEnum.Yes;
//barcode.EANStandards=BarcodeFonts.EANStandardsEnum.ISBN;			

barcode.encode();
textBoxOutput.Text = barcode.EncodedData;

//Other output
//textBoxOutput.Text = barcode.HumanText;
//textBoxOutput.Text = barcode.EANText;

Font fontx = new Font("CCode39_S3_Trial", 24);
textBoxOutput.Font = fontx;

//Setting Fonts for Windows Phone or Windows 8
//textBoxOutput.FontFamily 
//  =new System.Windows.Media.FontFamily(fontFamily);

Note :

The default font size for most barcodes is set to 24 (Except for POSTNET which is set to 9 and GS1 Databar Stacked Omni/GS1 Databar Expanded Stacked which is set to 48. But it can be adjusted to be slightly bigger or smaller. The font name needs to be appended with _Trial for Trial fonts.

If you are using the trial copy of ConnectCode Barcode fonts, the font name that is chosen when an input string is encoded will be appended with the word _Trial. As a consequence, the barcode sample that is displayed will be marked with horizontal lines at the top for some digits.
