Create UPC-E Barcode in .NET WinForms by Dragging and Dropping
  1. The first step is to add BarcodeLib.Barcode.WinForms.dll to your Visual Studio Toolbox and four items (QRCodeWinForm, DataMatrixWinForm, PDF417WinForm and LinearWinForm) are added.
  2. The second step is to drag LinearWinForm to the Windows form you have created, e.g. Form1.
  3. The third step is to change barcode settings through Properties window. Before that, you should choose UPC-E under Type item. Then, you may input the data you want to create (the original one is BL Sample).
    Other available settings are: size (UOM, ImageWidth, ImageHeight, BarWidth, BarHeight, LeftMargin, RightMargin, TopMargin and BottomMargin, ResizeImage, Resolution etc.), text style, color, image format and rotation.
  4. The last step is to run the project to see the created UPC-E barcode image.

C# & VB .NET Windows Forms UPC-E barcode Generation

At first, you should add reference (BarcodeLib.Barcode.WinForms.dll) to your .NET project. Then, you are able to start encoding. For example:
     Dim upce As New BarcodeLib.Barcode.Linear()
upce.Type = BarcodeType.UPCE
upce.Data = "199032"

upce.UOM =UnitOfMeasure.INCH
upce.ImageFormat = System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Bmp

'Generate and output UPC-E barcode image into your system
upce.drawBarcode ("c:/upce.bmp")
This is an example for UPC-E barcode generation in VB.NET Windows Forms.
     BarcodeLib.Barcode.Linear upce = new BarcodeLib.Barcode.Linear();
upce.Type = BarcodeType.UPCE;
upce.Data = "199032";

upce.UOM =UnitOfMeasure.INCH;
upce.ImageFormat = System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Bmp;


//Generate and output UPC-E barcode image into your system;
upce.drawBarcode ("c:/upce.bmp");
This is an example for UPC-E barcode generation in C#.NET Windows Forms.
