Barcode with Logos

Create Barcode with Logo Aspose.BarCode for .NET allows developers to generate barcodes with a logo or other images inside it instead of barcode text. The following code sample illustrates how this can be implemented.

// The path to the documents directory.
string dataDir = RunExamples.GetDataDir_CreateAndManage2DBarCodes();

// Create an instance of BarcodeGenerator class
// Set the barcode text
// Set the barcode symbology 
using (BarcodeGenerator  generator = new BarcodeGenerator (EncodeTypes.EAN13, "123456789012"))
{
    // Generate Barcode image and store it in a Bitmap
    using (System.Drawing.Bitmap barcode = generator.GenerateBarCodeImage())
    {
        // Load the logo/other image as Bitmap
        using (System.Drawing.Bitmap picture = (System.Drawing.Bitmap)System.Drawing.Image.FromFile(dataDir + "logo.png"))
        {
            // Create a new empty image with new Calculated height & width
            using (System.Drawing.Bitmap output = new System.Drawing.Bitmap(System.Math.Max(barcode.Width, picture.Width), barcode.Height + picture.Height))
            {
                // Get the Graphics object9
                using (System.Drawing.Graphics g = System.Drawing.Graphics.FromImage(output))
                {
                    // Clear the canvas 
                    g.Clear(System.Drawing.Color.White);

                    // Draw the primary image (barcode image) on the canvas
                    g.DrawImage(picture, new System.Drawing.PointF(0, 0));

                    // Draw the second image (logo image) on the canvas inside the barcode image
                    g.DrawImage(barcode, new System.Drawing.PointF(0, picture.Height));
                }
                output.Save(dataDir + "output.jpg");
                Console.WriteLine(Environment.NewLine + "Barcode saved at " + dataDir + "output.jpg");
            }
        }
    }
