Barcode-Lib4J – A free Barcode Library for Java

Features

• Drawing and printing 1D & 2D barcodes using Java2D (java.awt.Graphics2D)
• Exporting to PDF: Compliance with PDF/X-1a:2001 for CMYK and PDF/X-3:2002 for RGB
• Exporting to EPS: Generation of an optional embedded TIFF preview, supports RGB and CMYK colors
• Exporting to SVG: Supports RGB colors only
• Barcode precision: Coordinates are stored with up to 6 decimal places in all supported vector formats
• Exporting to PNG, BMP, JPG: DPI resolution stored in file header. No unwanted effects such as aliasing, etc.
• Adjustment of bar widths to printer resolution (essential for proper barcode quality at <= 600 dpi)
• Bar width reduction/correction (useful for addressing ink spread on inkjet printers)
• Barcodes include minimum distances ("quiet zones")
• Barcode number placement options: on top, bottom, or invisible
• Customizable plain text line: font + font size, spacing, modifiable content
• Automatic font size adjustment, if desired
• Advanced setting: enables printing with a user-defined module width

• Configurable ratio from 2:1 to 3:1 for barcode types that support it
• Add-On 2/5 for barcodes like EAN-13, EAN-8, ISBN-13 and UPC-A, second plain text line for ISBN and ISMN
• Comprehensive support for GS1 barcodes: Includes data integrity checks, validation of application identifiers, checks for length and content of user data, verification/calculation of the check digit in SSCC and GTIN and more.
