LEADTOOLS GS1 DataBar / RSS Barcode SDK

 

LEADTOOLS 1D Barcode SDK technology seamlessly integrates the creation, detection and decoding of GS1 DataBar as well as other linear 1D barcode symbols with advanced LEADTOOLS Imaging SDK technology. LEADTOOLS is the most advanced and comprehensive imaging SDK available and is LEADing the industry with high speed, yet very accurate 1D and 2D barcode read and write for over 100 different barcode types and sub-types.

Overview of LEADTOOLS GS1 DataBar / RSS Barcode SDK Technology

  • GS1 DataBar barcode is available as .NET classes, C DLL, C++ classes, .NET Compact Framework, WCF services and WF activities.
  • Add GS1 DataBar barcode technology to single and multi-threaded applications including IIS and Windows WF hosted applications.
  • Native 32 and 64 bit GS1 DataBar barcode binaries.
  • Find GS1 DataBar barcodes in entire image or specific region of interest.
  • GS1 DataBar barcode technology integrates seamlessly with Forms Recognition and Processing technology.
  • Read multiple barcodes of varying types in any orientation.
  • High speed GS1 DataBar barcode detection and decoding.
  • Images can come from any source including file, memory, Internet, and SharePoint.
  • Bitonal and color GS1 DataBar barcodes.
  • GS1 DataBar barcode data returned with 100% confidence.

LEADTOOLS GS1 DataBar / RSS Barcodes

Symbols intended for retail Point-of-Sale scanning

  • GS1 DataBar (DataBar-14)
  • GS1 DataBar Stacked Omni-directional (DataBar-14 Stacked Omni-directional)
  • GS1 DataBar Expanded
  • GS1 DataBar Expanded Stacked

Symbols that are not intended for retail Point-of-Sale scanning

  • GS1 DataBar Truncated (DataBar-14 Truncated)
  • GS1 DataBar Limited
  • GS1 DataBar Stacked

GS1 DataBar Omni-directional / RSS-14

GS1 DataBar Omni-directional encodes the full 14-digit EAN.UCC item identification in a linear symbol that can be scanned omni-directionally by suitably programmed point-of-sale scanners. It has been developed to increase the number of unique codes and to meet the needs of encoding more information into smaller space. It has two versions, standard and truncated.

RSS-14 Truncated / GS1 DataBar Truncated

The GS1 DataBar Truncated has the exact same data characteristics as the GS1 DataBar barcode, except the bar height is set to the GS1 DataBar standard of 13 times the X dimension. GS1 DataBar Truncated may be scanned omni-directionally.

RSS-14 Stacked / GS1 DataBar Stacked

RSS-14 Stacked is a variation of the RSS-14 symbology that is stacked in two rows and is used when the normal symbol would be too wide for the application. It comes in two versions, a truncated version used for small item marking applications and a taller omni-directional version which is designed to be read by omni-directional scanners.

RSS-14 Stacked Omni-directional / GS1 DataBar Stacked Omni-directional

The GS1 DataBar Stacked Omni-directional may be scanned omni-directionally. This symbology does not allow for human readable text with the barcode. The data to encode is separated to create a split level barcode. The height of each row is ascertained from the bar height property of the control. The barcode contains a separator pattern, containing no data, which has a height equal to 3 times the X dimension.

RSS-14 Limited / GS1 DataBar Limited

The GS1 DataBar Limited encodes a 14-digit EAN.UCC item identification with Indicator digits of zero or one in a linear symbol for use on small items that will not be scanned at the point-of-sale.

RSS-14 Expanded / GS1 DataBar Expanded

GS1 DataBar Expanded encodes EAN.UCC item identification plus supplementary AI element strings such as weight and "best before" date in a linear symbol that can be scanned omni-directionally by suitably programmed point-of-sale scanners.

RSS-14 Expanded Stacked / GS1 DataBar Expanded Stacked

GS1 DataBar Expanded Stacked is a variation of the RSS-14 Expanded symbology that is stacked into multiple rows and is used when the normal symbol would be too wide for the application.

Major Types of Linear 1D Barcode

  • LEADTOOLS Barcode SDK Modules are the most comprehensive barcode toolkits on the market, supporting both reading and writing of over 100 barcode types and sub-types, including all major 1D and 2D barcodes.
  • LEADTOOLS offers the fastest barcode recognition speed. LEADTOOLS Barcode SDK Modules can recognize barcodes faster than other commercial engines.  Our superior speed reduces "bottle neck" issues in high speed scanning applications.  In addition, you can maximize the benefits of today's high speed processors. 
  • LEADTOOLS is designed to allow our developers to add new barcode types and barcode "flavors" rapidly.   If you find a barcode that we cannot recognize, we will be able to update our engine quickly to add the barcode type.
  • LEADTOOLS Barcode SDK Modules can be added on to or are included in LEADTOOLS Document Imaging SDKs. These products include powerful document image processing and enhancement technology to clean noisy or damaged images to improve barcode and OCR accuracy.
  • Integrating barcode functionality into your application is very easy - one function to read barcodes and one function to write barcodes.  We have sample applications with source code ready for you to cut and paste into your project.
  • LEADTOOLS Barcode SDK Modules support both bitonal and color barcode images.
  • LEADTOOLS has optimized and trained our barcode engines to provide very high accuracy even on poor quality images.  The better the accuracy, the less human interaction that is required resulting in substantial savings of time and money.
  • LEADTOOLS offers several other toolkits that can be integrated with the Barcode SDK Modules. These SDKs include many additional imaging features such as extensive image file format support for reading and writing several raster, vector, and document file types, numerous image processing routines, document image clean-up, annotation, compression, scanning, medical imaging components, multimedia components, and mobile device support.
