UPC-E, also known as Universal Product Code version E, GTIN-12 with lead 0, GS1-12, UCC-12, is the short form representation of a UPC number.

C# UPC-E Generator is one of the functions in OnBarcode's Barcode for .NET Generation Controls, which supports generating & printing UPC-E and 20+ other linear & 2D bar codes for C# applications.

OnBarcode C# Barcode Generator makes it easy to generate, create UPC-E and other linear & 2d barcodes in Microsoft Word. Here are some detailed tutorials for C# UPC-E generation and data encoding, size & image setting.

• Samples for UPC-E Data Encoding using C#
• Samples for UPC-E Size Setting using C#
• Samples for UPC-E Image Setting using C#

Creating UPC-E barcode in C# class example:

	using System;
	using System.Collections.Generic;
	using System.Text;
	using OnBarcode.Barcode;
	using System.Drawing.Imaging;
	using System.Drawing;


            Linear upce = new Linear();

            // Barcode data to encode
            upce.Data = "123456";
            // Barcode symbology type
            //upce.Type = BarcodeType.UPCE;
            upce.Type = BarcodeType.UPCE_2;
            // This property is not working in UPC-E. 
            // According to UPC-E specification, our library will always encode checksum for you.
            upce.AddCheckSum = true;

            /*
                UPC-E Barcode Supplement 2, 5 digits
             */

            upce.SupData = "12";
            // This is a multiplicator of the bar height (Y); The default is 0.8 (80%).
            upce.SupHeight = 0.8f;
            // The separation between the barcode and the supplement barcode. Default is 15 pixel.
            upce.SupSpace = 15;

            upce.X = 1;
            // Bar module height (Y), default is 60 pixel;
            upce.Y = 60;

            upce.BottomMargin = 0;
            // Image resolution in dpi, default is 72 dpi.
            upce.Resolution = 72;
            // Created barcode orientation. 4 options are: facing left, facing right, facing bottom, and facing top
            upce.Rotate = Rotate.Rotate0;

            /*
             * Linear barcodes human readable text styles
             */
            // Display human readable text under the barcode
            upce.ShowText = true;
            // Display checksum digit at the end of barcode data.
            upce.ShowCheckSumChar = true;
            // Human readable text font size, font family and style
            upce.TextFont = new Font("Arial", 9f, FontStyle.Regular);
            // Space between barcode and text. Default is 6 pixel.
            upce.TextMargin = 6;

            // Generate UPC-E and encode barcode to gif format
            upce.Format = ImageFormat.Gif;
            upce.drawBarcode("C:\\upce.gif");
