Where can I use or evaluate the GdPicture DataMatrix Barcode Recognition Plugin?


The binaries of this plugin are included within the following Active X GdPicture SDKs:

GdPicture Pro Imaging SDK
GdPicture Light Imaging Toolkit
GdTwain Pro SDK
GdTwain ActiveX

By downloading one of these SDKs, you can use or evaluate the GdPicture DataMatrix Barcode Recognition Plugin.
You can get a one month trial KEY here. You can also purchase licenses here.
The plugin will need to be unlocked: see "How do I unlock the GdPicture DataMatrix Barcode Recognition Plugin".



How do I unlock the GdPicture DataMatrix Barcode Recognition Plugin?


Just call the SetLicenseNumberDataMatrixBarcodeRecognition() method passing your license KEY as parameter:
    I.E., Object.SetLicenseNumberDataMatrixBarcodeRecognition("YourKey");



What is the minimum image resolution to get reasonable accuracy?


The minimum image resolution is about 150 DPI. Below 150 DPI, accurate results decrease dramatically.



How do I perform DataMatrix barcode recognition on a specific zone of an image?


1- Load the image (see your toolkit reference guide).
2- Define the zone (also called region of interest) using the SetROI() method.
    I.E., Object.SetRoi(100,100,250,50)
3- Perform the barcode recognition using the BarcodeDataMatrixReaderDoScan() method.
