Barcode Web Server Component for ASP.NET - EAN-8 Specification
EAN-8 is the short version of EAN barcodes. It is the EAN equivalent of UPC-E in the sense that it provides smaller barcode for smaller packages. An EAN-8 barcode symbol is usually shorter that EAN-13, although longer that UPC-E. The EAN-8 barcode symbology is one of the GS1 barcodes besides EAN-13, UPC-A, UPC-E, GS1-128, ITF-14, GS1 DataBar, and Data Matrix.
ASP.NET EAN-8 Generator encodes:
  • 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9
  • 8 digits including the check digit
