Code 11 Size Setting Introduction
Width Setting
The width of Code 11 barcode image is influenced by the parameters in the following table.
| Parameter |
Parameter Description |
Range |
Related Property |
| Image Width(W) |
The width of the Code 11 image |
- |
BarCodeWidth |
| Module Bar Width (X) |
The width of the module bar in Code 11 |
X ≥ 1 pixel |
X |
| Left Quiet Zone Width (Q1) |
The space between the left edge of the image and the leftmost bar; Q1= 10 X + Left Margin Width |
Q1 ≥ 10X |
LeftMargin |
| Right Quiet Zone Width (Q2) |
The space between the right edge of the image and the rightmost bar; Q2= 10 X + Right Margin Width |
Q2 ≥ 10X |
RightMargin |
Supplement note: the quantity of data characters also has an influence over the width of the barcode. See C# Code 11 Size Setting - Image Width Setting.
Height Setting
The height of Code 11 barcode image is made up by Top Margin width, Bottom Margin width, Bar Height, space between barcode and text, and the height of Text.

How to Use C#.NET Code 11 Generator Size Setting Properties
C#.NET Code 11 Generator provides C#.NET developers with a full set of properties for Code 11 size setting.
Before starting size setting, please install C#.NET Code 11 Generator and add the following code as namespace reference.
using KeepAutomation.Barcode.Bean;
using KeepAutomation.Barcode;
using System.Drawing.Imaging;
Input the following C# Code to use C#.NET Code 11 Generator where Code 11 bar code image is needed.
BarCode code11 = new BarCode();
code11.Symbology = Symbology.Code11;
Input a string value for CodeToEncode, which will be encoded as data in your Code 11. Pay attention to the data encoding instruction for Code 11.
code11.CodeToEncode = "123";
BarcodeUnit
Property BarcodeUnit is in control of unit of measure. Before setting the bar width and image size, you should know for sure all the properties in the coming passages are based on the unit of measure. BarcodeUnit defaults as Pixel, and you can change it to cm or inch.
code11.BarcodeUnit = BarcodeUnit.Pixel;
X
Property X (Float; Default: 1) is used in Code 11 module bar width setting. Try to set X using C# code as follows:
code11.X = 2;
Now, the width of a bar in Code 11 has been changed from 1 pixel (as default) to 2 pixel. You can make it even greater if wider bars are in need.
Y
Property Y (Float; Default: 50) sets the bar height of the Code 11.
code11.Y = 40;
The width of bars in Code 11 has been changed from 50 pixels (as default) to 40 pixels. You can make it even greater or smaller.
BarCodeHeight and BarCodeWidth
C#.NET Code 11 Generator is also equipped with functional properties BarCodeHeight (Float; Default: 0) and BarCodeWidth (Float; Default: 0) to set the size of the whole Code 11 bar code image.
code11.BarCodeHeight = 70;
code11.BarCodeWidth = 175;
Note: If the setting of image size conflict with the settings in bar width or bar height, you can enable AutoResize to make the generated Code 11 compatible with Code 11 barcode specification.
TopMargin, BottomMargin, LeftMargin, and RightMargin
Code 11 C#.NET Generator will generate a quiet zone at each end of the Code 11 symbol automatically. The auto-generated quiet zone is 10X width. You can increase width of quiet zone by increasing the value of properties LeftMargin (Float; Default: 0) and RightMargin (Float; Default: 0). Also, the height of the image can be increased using TopMargin (Float; Default: 0) and BottomMargin (Float; Default: 0).
code11.TopMargin = 10;
code11.BottomMargin = 10;
code11.LeftMargin = 10;
code11.RightMargin = 10;
TextMargin
Property TextMargin (Float; Default: 6 pixel) controls the width of space between Code 11 bar code and the human readable text below the barcode.
code11.TextMargin = 10;
