Two-dimensional barcode can contain more data per label than a one-dimensional one, up to thousands of characters. Large amounts of text and data can be stored securely and inexpensively, encoded into two-dimensional barcodes. Aspose.BarCode supports both barcode types in one simple interface.
Creating a Two-dimentional Barcode
The BarCodeAttributes class supports both one-dimensional and two-dimensional barcodes. Creating two-dimensional barcodes is just the same as creating one-dimensional barcodes.
Creating a Pdf417 Barcode
This is a quick example. Read more about creating PDF417 barcodes.
Sample PDF417 barcode
Java
public class MyAttributes
{
public static BarCodeAttributes Create(String text, String symbology)
{
BarCodeAttributes b = new BarCodeAttributes();
b.setCodeText(text);
b.setSymbology(symbology);
// width of each module
b.setYDimension(0.6f);
// height of each module
b.setYDimension(1.2f);
return b;
}
