1. GS1-128/EAN-128 Barcode Introduction
GS1-128 / EAN-128 is also known as EAN-128,
UCC-128, USS-128, GS1-128, UCC.EAN-128, GTIN-128, UCC-12, EAN/UCC-13,
EAN/UCC-14
The UCC/EAN-128 Symbology is a subset of the more general Code 128 Symbology. UCC/EAN-128 was developed to provide a worldwide format and standard for exchanging common data between companies. While other bar codes simply encode data with no respect for what the data represents, UCC/EAN-128 encodes data and encodes what that data represents.

While other bar codes simply encode data with no respect for what the data represents, UCC/EAN-128 encodes data and encodes what that data represents.
UCC/EAN-128 has a list of Application Identifiers (AI). The
Application Identifier is a 2, 3, or 4-digit number that identifies the type of
data which follows. By convention, the Application Identifier is enclosed in
parentheses when printed below the barcode (the parentheses are only for visual
clarity, and are not encoded in the barcode).

How to encode UCC/EAN-128 values using Barcode Library
Introduction
UCC/EAN 128 encodes the so called Element Strings which are composed of an Application Identifier (AI)
plus a data field.
Each AI identifies the meaning and format of the data following it.
Note that the AI has parentheses around it in the human readable text,
but the parentheses are not encoded in the barcode.
Encode AI Code
In Barcode Library, developer mush put AI(dddd) around AI code, for the above sample image, you must
set Data property = 'AI(21)d12345777AI(21)12345678'.
Encode ASCII Data
In Barcode Library, you can use CH(ddd) format to encode ASCII data, for example CH(100) = d.
So for the above sample image, you can also
set Data property = 'AI(21)CH(100)12345777AI(21)12345678'.
2. GS1-128/EAN-128 Encoding Data Scope
UCC/EAN 128 Barcode for .NET, ASP.NET supports:
- all 128 characters of ASCII
3. GS1-128/EAN-128 Barcode Property Settings
- Set the Type property to BarcodeType.EAN128
- Set the Data property with the value to encode. Type is string.
-
Setting up barcode image size:
-
Set property UOM (Unit of Measure) for properties BarWidth, BarHeight, LeftMargin and TopMargin.
Default is UnitOfMeasure.Pixel (0). Valid values are UnitOfMeasure.Pixel (0), UnitOfMeasure.CM (1), UnitOfMeasure.Inch (2). - Set the BarWidth (for bar cell width) and BarHeight (for bar cell height) properties. Both types are float.
- Set the LeftMargin and TopMargin properties, and types are both float.
- Set the Resolution property (Value is expressed in DPI - Dots per inch). This property is not working in Windows Controller, we will use end user's windows resultion.
-
Set property UOM (Unit of Measure) for properties BarWidth, BarHeight, LeftMargin and TopMargin.
-
Setting up text style in barcode image:
- Set the ShowText properties. If this value is true, barcode data will be displayed with the barcode.
- Set the TextFont property. The font used to display text in barcode image.
- Set the Format property for barcode image type. Value can be "gif", "jpg", "png", and "bmp", default is "png".
- Set BearerBars property, if you want to draw borders around barcode image. Value can be BearerBar.None (no bear bars), BearerBar.Frame (top, bottom, left, right borders drawn), BearerBar.TopBottom (only top, bottom's are drawn).
-
Set Rotate property, if you want to rotate barcode image.
Value can be
0 (RotateOrientation.BottomFacingDown),
1 (RotateOrientation.BottomFacingLeft),
2 (RotateOrientation.BottomFacingUp),
3 (RotateOrientation.BottomFacingRight) - AddCheckSum property is not applied.
