Java Barcode Reader Scanning and Reading Performance Issue

The trial version of Java Barcode Reader library is a general purpose barcode recognition engine.

In the trial version, barcode reading engine will try to use more than one algorithm to indentify and recognize the barcode data. And the reader will also try to read an image file from 4 different directions. So it will take a lot of time to read some large images (like 400dpi A4 page scanned images).

If you feel slow to use our library to do trial testing with your images, please send email (support@onbarcode.com) to us, our developers will help you on barcode reader engine customization, usually you will get 30% - 90% performance improvement.

And it is absolutely FREE.

Java Barcode Reader Engine Customization Service

There are a lot of factors will affect Java Barcode Reader's recognition speed, like, barcode quality, image size, image color.

If barcode image reading speed is very critical for you, please send email to us (support@onbarcode.com), we provide special customization service for you.
