Barcode

Generates a 1D barcode from a value you type.

To make a barcode:

  1. Open QR code & barcode, then select the Barcode tab.
  2. Choose a Format: CODE128, EAN13, UPC, or CODE39.
  3. Type the Value.
  4. Select Download PNG to save the image, or Edit image to send it to the image editor.

What you'll see when it's done: the barcode image in your browser's downloads, or the image workspace open with it loaded.

If something goes wrong

A value that doesn't fit the chosen format shows "<value>" is not a valid <format> value. — try a different value or format (for example, EAN13 needs a specific number of digits with a valid check digit).

FormatWhat it's typically used for
CODE128General-purpose — letters, numbers and punctuation
EAN13Retail product barcodes (13 digits)
UPCRetail product barcodes (North America)
CODE39Letters and numbers, widely supported by older scanners
