C# Barcode Generator for ISSN Creation

How to generate and print ISSN barcode for .NET application using C# barcode SDK

  Install and register C# barcode DLL for .NET projects in Visual Studio

    See Barcode Generator Installation in C#.NET in Visual Studio 2005/2008/2010

  Create ISSN barcode image using C# barcode making SDK

Avapose .NET Barcode Generator generates 23 linear barcode symbologies. Find the properties "Symbology" (default value: Code128Auto) in Properties Windows, and input the symbology value you want according to the following list:

Symbology ISSN ISSN with 2-digit add-on symbol ISSN with 5 digit add-on symbol
Symbology Value ISSN ISSNSup2 ISSNSup5
Symbology Sample Code in C# BarCode barcode = new BarCode(); barcode.Symbology = Symbology.ISSN; BarCode barcode = new BarCode(); barcode.Symbology = Symbology.ISSNSup2; BarCode barcode = new BarCode(); barcode.Symbology = Symbology.ISSNSup5;

ISSN data encoding using C# barcode generating component

Though it seems that ISSN has 13 digits, there are only 9 digits to encode. That is because the first 3 digits is fixed data “977”, and the end digit is a check digit.



Find the properties "Data" (default value: 128) in Properties Windows. Input the data you are going to encode in the ISSN. Make sure the data you input is within the character set of ISSN.

Symbology Value Symbology Character Set Input Digits Account
ISSN Numeric Character: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9; 9
ISSNSup2 Numeric Character: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9; 9 +2
ISSNSup5 Numeric Character: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9; 9 +5


C# code of encoding data to ISSN barcode using C# barcode creating API

Property Name Sample Code – ISSN
Data


BarCode
barcode = new BarCode();
barcode.Symbology = Symbology.ISSN;
barcode.Data = "977987654321";


C# code of encoding two digits supplement data to ISSN barcode using C# barcode library


Property Name Sample Code – ISSNSup2
Data


BarCode
barcode = new BarCode();
barcode.Symbology = Symbology.ISSNSup2;
barcode.Data = "977987654321";
barcode.SupData = "12";


C# code of encoding five digits supplement data to ISSN barcode using C# barcode library


Property Name Sample Code – ISSNSup5
Data


BarCode
barcode = new BarCode();
barcode.Symbology = Symbology.ISSNSup5;

ISSN supplement barcode properties using C# barcode library

When supplement barcode is needed, you also need to know the two properties for the supplement barcode generating besides the supplement data (SupData). They are SupHeight and SupSpace.


Property Value Type Default Value Property Description Sample Code
SupHeight float 0.8f SupHeight= supplement barcode height/ main barcode height; the value of SupHeight ranges from 0 to 0.8f
BarCode barcode = new BarCode();
barcode.Symbology = Symbology.ISSNSup5;
barcode.Data = "977987654321";
barcode.SupData = "12345";
barcode.SupHeight = 0.6f;
SupSpace float 15 (pixel) The space between the main barcode and the supplement barcode
BarCode barcode = new BarCode();
barcode.Symbology = Symbology.ISSNSup5;
barcode.Data = "977987654321";
barcode.SupData = "12345";
barcode.SupHeight = 0.6f;
barcode.SupSpace = 20;


ISSN size properties and methods in C#.NET project using C# barcode generator

Size Setting of the barcode provided by Avapose .NET Barcode Generator is comprehensive.

We can generally divide it into four parts:

1. Unit Of Measure Setting

2. Image Size Setting : BarcodeImageWidth and BarcodeImageHeight

3. Module Size Setting: X and Y

4. Margin Size Setting: MarginTop, MarginBottom, MarginLeft, and MarginRight

Property Value Type Default Value Property Description Sample Code
UOM UnitOfMeasure Pixel
The unit of measure;

Options:

Pixel
Cm
Inch

BarCode barcode = new BarCode(); barcode.Symbology = Symbology.ISSN;
barcode.Data = "977987654321";
barcode.UOM = UnitOfMeasure.Cm;
BarcodeImageWidth float 0 Barcode image width


BarCode
barcode = new BarCode(); barcode.Symbology = Symbology.ISSN;
barcode.Data = "977987654321";

BarCode
barcode = new BarCode();
barcode.Symbology = Symbology.ISSN;
barcode.Data = "977987654321";
barcode.BarcodeImageHeight =50;

X float 2 Width of module in unit of measure


BarCode
barcode = new BarCode(); barcode.Symbology = Symbology.ISSN; barcode.Data = "977987654321";
