Leitcode Barcode Creator Library for .NET Windows Forms Applictions - Overview

.NET Leitcode generator for Winforms is a flexible and robust barcode generating component, which aims to generate and create Leitcode barcode in .NET Windows Forms applications in an easy way. It enables to integrate barcode generating component into Visual Studio2005/2008/2010. .NET 2.0/3.0/3.5 and later version are supported. This generator provides a simple but complete developer guide, requiring minimum barcode knowledge of Leitcode.

With Leitcode generator for Winforms, high-quality Leitcode barcode images can be generated and printed into GIF, BMP, PNG, JPEG/JPG & TIFF files. .NET Leitcode generator for Winforms also provides rich barcode properties options to customize Leitcode barcodes according to your needs.

Leitcode information:

Leitcode, known as German Postal 2 of 5 Leitcode, Code Leitcode, Deutsche Post AG (DHL), is a linear numeric- only barcode. It is one version of interleaved 2 of 5 barcode. Unlike interleaved 2 of 5 barcode, the value of Leitcode to encode length is fixed to 13 digits plus a check digit in the end. Those 13 digits are divided into 4 parts: the fore five digits represent Postal code; then the following two three- digit represents Street ID/ number and House number respectively; the last 2 digits represent the Product code.

.NET Leitcode generator for Winforms encodes:

  • 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9
According to Leitcode specification, this generator encodes 13 digits only, excluding the last checksum digit.

Development Environment

  • Windows Forms Application (design-time and runtime support)

  • Console Application (runtime support)

  • Windows Service (runtime support)

  • Class Library (runtime support)

Generate Leitcode barcode using .NET Windows Forms Barcode Generator Component

Install and register .NET barcode generator control in .NET projects for Leitcode barcode generation
  • Download Avapose.com trial package and unzip

  • Copy Avapose.Barcode.Encoder.WinForms.dll to your Winforms project folder
    (Do not copy .dll to .NET bin directory, Visual Studio will do so.)

  • Add Avapose.Barcode.Encoder.WinForms.dll to your Winforms project reference

  • Add Winforms Control to your Visual Studio Toolbox.

  • 1. Right click .NET Visual Studio Toolbox, select menu Choose Items...

    2. In "Choose Toolbox Items" form, click button "Browse...", and select dll
        Avapose.Barcode.Encoder.WinForms.dll

Generate, print Leitcode barcodes with C# class

BarCode barcode = new BarCode();

aa.Symbology = Symbology.Leitcode;

aa.Data = "7522752275227";

aa.BarcodeImageWidth = 175;

aa.BarcodeImageHeight = 50;

aa.X =1;

aa.Y = 80;

aa.AutoResize = true;

aa.draw("...\leitcode_csharp.gif");


Generate, print Leitcode barcodes with VB.NET class

Dim barcode As Avapose.Barcode.Encoder.ClassLibrary.BarCode = New Avapose.Barcode.Encoder.ClassLibrary.Barcode

barcode.Symbology = Avapose.Barcode.Encoder.ClassLibrary.Symbology.Leitcode

barcode.Data = "6516651665166"

barcode.BarcodeImageWidth = 175

barcode.BarcodeImageHeight = 50

barcode.X = 1

barcode.Y = 60

barcode.AutoResize = True

barcode.draw("...\leitcode_vb.gif")
