Creating Data Matrix barcode in VB.NET class example:

	Dim barcode As DataMatrix = New DataMatrix
	
	' Data Matrix Barcode Basic Settings
	
	barcode.Data = "112233445566"
	
	barcode.DataMode = DataMatrixDataMode.ASCII
	
	' if your selected format mode doesnot have enough space to encode your data, 
	' the library will choose the right format mode for you automatically.
	barcode.FormatMode = DataMatrixFormatMode.Format_48X48
	
	'  Set the ProcessTilde property to true, if you want use the tilde character "~" 
	'  to specify special characters in the input data. Default is false.
	'
	'  1) 1-byte character: ~0dd/~1dd/~2dd (character value from 000 ~ 255); ASCII character '~' is presented by ~126
	'         Strings from "~256" to "~299" are unused
	'       modified to FS, GS, RS and US respectively.
	'  2) 2-byte character (Unicode): ~6ddddd (character value from 00000 ~ 65535)
	'         Strings from "~665536" to "~699999" are unused
	'  3) for GS1 AI Code: 
	'         ~ai2: AI with 2 digits
	'         ~ai3: AI with 3 digits
	'         ~ai4: AI with 4 digits
	'         ~ai5: AI with 5 digits
	'         ~ai6: AI with 6 digits
	'         ~ai7: AI with 7 digits
	'  4) ECI: ~7dddddd (valid value of dddddd from 000000 to 999999)
	'  5) ~rp: Reader Programming (for ASCII mode and Auto mode only)
	'  6) ~m5: 05 Macro (for ASCII mode and Auto mode only)
	'  7) ~m6: 06 Macro (for ASCII mode and Auto mode only)
	barcode.ProcessTilde = True
	
	' Barcode Size Related Settings
	barcode.UOM = UnitOfMeasure.PIXEL
	barcode.X = 3
	barcode.LeftMargin = 0
	barcode.RightMargin = 0
	barcode.TopMargin = 0
	barcode.BottomMargin = 0
	barcode.Resolution = 96
	barcode.Rotate = Rotate.Rotate0
	
	' Image format setting
	barcode.ImageFormat = Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Gif()
	
	barcode.drawBarcode("c:/data-matrix.gif")
