  Create Planet 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 Value Symbology Sample Code in C#
PLANET PLANET


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



Planet data encoding using C# barcode generating component

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

Planet 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.Planet;
barcode.Data = "98765432109";
barcode.UOM = UnitOfMeasure.Cm;
BarcodeImageWidth float 0 Barcode image width


BarCode
barcode = new BarCode(); barcode.Symbology = Symbology.Planet;
barcode.Data = "98765432109";
barcode.BarcodeImageWidth = 175;

BarcodeImageHeight float 0 Barcode image height


BarCode
barcode = new BarCode();
barcode.Symbology = Symbology.Planet;
barcode.Data = "98765432109";
barcode.BarcodeImageHeight =50;

X float 2 Width of module in unit of measure


BarCode
barcode = new BarCode(); barcode.Symbology = Symbology.Planet; barcode.Data = "98765432109";
barcode.X = 1;

Y float 75 Height of module in unit of measure


BarCode
barcode = new BarCode(); barcode.Symbology = Symbology.Planet; barcode.Data = "98765432109";
barcode.Y = 50;

AutoResize bool false -


BarCode
barcode = new BarCode(); barcode.Symbology = Symbology.Planet; barcode.Data = "98765432109";
barcode.AutoResize = true;

MarginTop float 0 Top margin width of the barcode image in unit of measure
BarCode barcode = new BarCode(); barcode.Symbology = Symbology.Planet; barcode.Data = "98765432109";
barcode.MarginTop = 5;
barcode.MarginBottom = 5;
barcode.MarginLeft = 5;
barcode.MarginRight = 5;
MarginBottom float 0 Bottom margin width of the barcode image in unit of measure
MarginLeft float 0 Left margin width of the barcode image in unit of measure
MarginRight float 0 Right margin width of the barcode image in unit of measure

PLANET advanced barcode properties using C# barcode library

PLANET Short Bar and Tall Bar Setting

Unlike EAN/UPC or Code 128, PLANET has short bars and tall bars. The ratio of the short bar to tall bars is defined by property ShortTallRatio. ShortTallRatio = short bar height / tall bar height.



Property Value Type Default Value Property Description Sample Code
ShortTallRatio float 0.4f ShortTallRatio = short bar height / tall bar height

BarCode barcode = new BarCode();
barcode.Symbology = Symbology.Planet;
barcode.ShortTallRatio = 0.6f;
