Frequently Asked Questions
How is the EAN-13 barcode structured?
This 13-digit barcode consists of 12 digits for the product information and 1 check digit for validation.
Twelve digits represent the product data, while the final digit is a calculated checksum. It's used worldwide to uniquely label retail goods and is a type of GTIN.
Using KeepAutomation C# EAN-13 Barcode Reader library, you will scan and decode complete verified EAN-13 text data from image files
in C# ASP.NET, MVC, Blazor, Windows Forms and WPF applications.
What's the way to verify an EAN-13 barcode?
An EAN-13 has 12 digits for the item's ID and a final check digit. Use this check digit to validate it.
The barcode's first 12 digits hold the core product data, and the 13th digit is a mathematical fingerprint of that data.
Using C# EAN-13 Barcode reader sdk component, you can easily verify the scanned EAN-13 barcodes in
Visual Studio .NET projects.
How can I capture the number from an EAN-13 barcode?
Utilize a barcode scanner or reader software to decode and extract EAN-13 numbers from images.
Data is retrieved using a barcode reading device or application.
The technology images the black and white bars, processes the pattern, and outputs the final 13-digit product number.
Using C# EAN-13 barcoder scanner and reader library, you can extract EAN-13 digits data from image files in C# class.
What's the way to scan EAN barcodes?
EAN barcodes (EAN-13, EAN-8, plus 2 or 5-digit add-ons) can be captured, read, and recognized with barcode software or scanners from images.
Either dedicated barcode readers or mobile applications-to capture and process all EAN variants from an image or physical label.
Using KeepAutomation C# EAN barcode reader library, you can quickly scan and decode all EAN barcode (EAN-13, EAN-8, EAN-14, EAN-128) data from
image files in C# ASP.NET, Console, WinForms, WPF applications.
