Reading ITF-14 bar code image from PDF document or raster images in .NET, C#, VB.NET and ASP.NET applications is an easy work if pqScan Barcode Decoding Component for .NET is been used. Only six APIs can help you with fast bar code reading. Currently, our .NET barcode reader control supports reading ITF-14 from Tif/Tiff, Jpg /Jpeg, Bmp, Gif, and Png image formats. The decoded result will contain barcode type and barcode data, in the form of data array.
APIs for Single Barcode Type: Recognize ITF-14
As you see, these three .NET APIs illustrate how to scan and decode ITF-14 bar code from image files in the forms of Bitmap, Stream and String. And they are suggested to be used in C# or VB.NET class programming if you want to read one or more ITF-14 barcodes (only) from loaded image file.
public static BarcodeResult[] Scan(Bitmap bitmap, BarCodeType barType); public static BarcodeResult[] Scan(Stream stream, BarCodeType barType); public static BarcodeResult[] Scan(string filename, BarCodeType barType);
APIs for Multi-Barcode Type: Including ITF-14
If your image file or PDF document has more than one barcode types and you do not know what are they, instead of decoding ITF-14 only, you can try with the following .NET APIs to recognize all barcode images on the file and return bar codes types and data information
public static BarcodeResult[] Scan(Bitmap bitmap); public static BarcodeResult[] Scan(Stream stream); public static BarcodeResult[] Scan(string filename);
APIs for One ITF-14 Barcode Reading from Image
We provide three APIs for one ITF-14 scanning and reading. It helps to improve ITF-14 recognition accuracy and it is suitable when there's only one ITF-14 barcode on your image.
public static BarcodeResult ScanSingle(Bitmap bitmap); public static BarcodeResult ScanSingle(Stream stream); public static BarcodeResult ScanSingle(string filename);
