Creating Aztec Barcodes

Aztec is a square grid high-density two-dimensional barcode symbology that can encode up to 3,000 alphanumeric characters.

Creating Aztec Barcodes

To create an Aztec barcode:

1. Instantiate BarCodeAttributes.
2. Call the setSymbologyType() method and pass AZTEC.
3. Call the setCodeText() method to set the data you want to encode.

Aztec barcode sample

Java

 public class MyAttributes

{

    public static BarCodeAttributes Create(String text, String symbology)

    {

        BarCodeAttributes b = new BarCodeAttributes();

        b.setCodeText(text);

        b.setSymbology(symbology);

        return b;

    }

}

Error Correction

Aztec barcode allows code recovery when the barcode image is partly damaged; error correction levels range from 10% to 90%.

Aztec barcode samples with different error correction levels

Java

 public class MyAttributes

{

    public static BarCodeAttributes Create(String text, String symbology)

    {

        BarCodeAttributes b = new BarCodeAttributes();

        b.setCodeText(text);

        b.setSymbology(symbology);

        b.setAztecErrorLevel(AztecErrorLevel.MEDIUM);

        return b;

    }

}
