justsomeguy Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 There are several different formats for bar codes. You need to figure out what the rules for your format are and what the different bars and positions mean, and then you can use the GD library to draw filled rectangles of either white or black.

SunTzu Posted September 24, 2007 Author Share Posted September 24, 2007 I thought that there was a standard for this ... it seems a bit complicated ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justsomeguy Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 There's no one standard for barcodes. Any company who uses them heavily probably comes up with their own standard. Mail services, airlines, department stores, etc probably all use different formats. Most products use UPC codes:http://www.adams1.com/pub/russadam/upccode.htmlBut there are several examples of other formats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
