Generating barcode UPC-E in C# Class example (C# UPC-E Generator Complete Demo Source Code):

   Linear upce = new Linear();
   upce.Type = BarcodeType.UPCE;
   upce.Data = "123456";
   upce.X = 1;
   upce.Y = 60;
	        
   // Generate UPC-E and encode barcode to gif format
   upce.Format = System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Gif;
   upce.drawBarcode("C://c#-upce.gif");
	        
   // Print UPC-E to C# Bitmap object
   Bitmap upceBitmap = upce.drawBarcode();

Generating barcode UPC-E in VB.NET Class example (VB.NET UPC-E Generator Complete Demo Source Code):

   Dim upce As OnBarcode.Barcode.Linear
   upce = New OnBarcode.Barcode.Linear()
   upce.Type = OnBarcode.Barcode.BarcodeType.UPCE
   upce.Data = "123456"
   upce.X = 1
   upce.Y = 60
	        
   ' Generate UPC-E and encode barcode to png format
   upce.Format = System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Png
   upce.drawBarcode("C://vbnet-upce.png")
	        
   ' Print UPC-E to vb.net Bitmap object
   Dim upceBitmap As Bitmap
   upceBitmap = upce.drawBarcode()

How to Create & Draw UPC-E Image in ASP.NET aspx or Html Pages Without ASP.NET Barcode Controller?

Top

Under demo package, copy barcode folder and its contents to your IIS, and create a new virtual directory.
Restart IIS, navigate to http://YourDomain:Port/barcode/linear.aspx?DATA=123456&TYPE=39.
To create barcode UPC-E image in html or aspx pages, you can insert a image tag (img) into your page.
For example, <img src="http://YourDomain:Port/barcode/linear.aspx?DATA=123456&TYPE=39" />

How to Create & Encode Barcode UPC-E to Image File (GIF, JPEG, PNG, BMP)?

Creating barcode UPC-E image in C# Class example:

   Linear upce = new Linear();
   upce.Type = BarcodeType.UPCE;
   upce.Data = "123456";
   upce.X = 1;
   upce.Y = 60;
	        
   // Create UPC-E and encode barcode to Jpeg format
   upce.Format = System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Jpeg;
   upce.drawBarcode("C://csharp-upce.jpg");

Creating barcode UPC-E image in VB.NET Class example:

   Dim upce As OnBarcode.Barcode.Linear
   upce = New OnBarcode.Barcode.Linear()
   upce.Type = OnBarcode.Barcode.BarcodeType.UPCE
