Configuration
What is This Tool?
A barcode generator creates scannable barcodes in standard formats including Code 128, Code 39, EAN-13, UPC-A, ITF, and more. Generate barcodes from text, numbers, or product codes and download as SVG or PNG for labels, inventory, and retail applications.
Barcodes encode data as parallel lines of varying width. Different symbologies serve different purposes: EAN-13/UPC-A for retail products, Code 128 for shipping/logistics, Code 39 for government/defense, and ITF for carton packaging. Each has specific character sets and length requirements.
