Codabar, known as Codeabar, Ames Code, Monarch, Code 2 of 7, Rationalized Codabar, ANSI/AIM BC3-1995 or USD-4, is a discrete, self-checking linear barcode symbology.

Generate and create Codabar barcode using Java is one of the functions in OnBarcode's Barcode for Java Generating Java library (jar file), which supports generating & printing Codabar and 20+ other linear & 2D bar codes in Java application and software.

Codabar Generator and Reader library, SDK & application
Codabar Generator components and software include .NET Codabar, C# Codabar, ASP.NET Codabar, VB.NET Codabar, Codabar Generator.

This document is providing a detailed Java sample source code about generating Codabar barcodes in Java class using Java Barcode generation component. Complete Codabar custmoization settings is included in Java Codabar generating guide.

Generating Codabar barcode in Java class example:

	Codabar barcode = new Codabar();
	
	// Codabar data to encode
	/*
	           Codabar Valid data char set:
	                - (Dash), $ (Dollar), : (Colon), / (Slash), . (Point), + (Plus)
	                0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9
	        */
	barcode.setData("112233445566");
	
	// Codabar Start & Stop Char, Valid values are 'A', 'B', 'C', 'D'
	barcode.setStartChar('A');
	barcode.setStopChar('A');
	
	// Codabar Unit of Measure, pixel, cm, or inch
	barcode.setUom(IBarcode.UOM_PIXEL);
	// Codabar bar module width (X) in pixel
	barcode.setX(3f);
	// Codabar bar module height (Y) in pixel
	barcode.setY(75f);
	
	// Codabar image margins
	barcode.setLeftMargin(0f);
	barcode.setRightMargin(0f);
	barcode.setTopMargin(0f);
	barcode.setBottomMargin(0f);
	
	// Codabar image resolution in dpi
	barcode.setResolution(72);
	
	// disply barcode encoding data below the barcode
	barcode.setShowText(true);
	// barcode encoding data font style
	barcode.setTextFont(new Font("Arial", 0, 12));
	// space between barcode and barcode encoding data
	barcode.setTextMargin(6);
	
	//  barcode displaying angle
	barcode.setRotate(IBarcode.ROTATE_0);
	
	/*
	  to save into gif file, file name end with .gif
	  to save into jpeg file, file name end with .jpg
	  to save into eps file, call method drawBarcode2EPS and file name end with .eps
	*/
	barcode.drawBarcode("C:\\codabar.gif");
