GdPicture.NET 2D Barcode Reader and Writer Plugin


GdPicture.NET 2D Barcode Reader and Writer Plugin

Hi Everyone,

Today we have some news for you in the barcoding domain: we now support a new barcode symbology, and we have simplified our plugin offer.
As we have a single plugin for all linear barcodes, we decided to regroup all 2D barcode plugins into a single plugin.

New: Aztec Code reading and writing

GdPicture.NET Document Imaging SDK welcomes a new 2D barcode symbology with reading and writing features: Aztec Code barcode.

The Aztec Code symbology has been standardized and is available as ISO/IEC 24778:2008.
It is described as a two-dimensional matrix symbology whose symbols are nominally square, made up of square modules on a square grid, with a square bullseye pattern at their center.
Aztec Code symbols can encode from small to large amounts of data with user-selected percentages of error correction.

Aztec Code is a barcode widely used for transport ticketings like airline boarding passes and train tickets.

You will find the reading and writing methods in our documentation.

A new and all-inclusive 2D barcode plugin

Instead of creating another plugin for the Aztec Code barcode, as we have previously done for DataMatrix, Qr-Code, and PDF417, we have decided to create a single plugin for all 2D barcodes.

This new barcode is called GdPicture.NET 2D Barcode Reader and Writer and includes:

Customers who own one or several of these plugins and have a valid maintenance contract will be automatically upgraded to the 2D Barcode Reader with the current release.
For customers with an older version, upgrade pricing is available on demand.
If you have any questions, please contact our Sales department.

Cheers,

Elodie
