Members

Member name	Value	Description
Automatic	0	The barcode type is not specified and will be automatically assigned.
Aztec	1	Aztec Code is a two-dimensional (2-D) general-purpose matrix symbology that is designed to have higher accuracy than other 2-D symbologies. An Aztec Code symbol can encode up to 3,832 numeric digits; 3,067 alphabetic characters; or 1,914 bytes of data.
Bookland	2	The Bookland barcode encodes the ISBN number in EAN-13 format followed by a 5-digit supplemental code. The barcode data always consists of the digits ‘978’ (the EAN article identifier), followed by a 9-digit number and one check digit. The 5-digit add-on barcode is used to encode the book price.
Codabar	3	A discrete, self-checking symbology that may encode 16 different characters, plus an additional 4 start/stop characters. This symbology is used by U.S. blood banks, photo labs, and on FedEx air bills.
Code11	4	This symbology is mainly used in telecommunications for marking equipment and components.
Code39	5	Also known as "3 of 9 code" or "USD-3", it is the standard bar code used by the United States Department of Defense, and by the Health Industry Bar Code Council (HIBCC). Code 39 is a discrete, variable-length symbology. The character set can be extended to cover the full ASCII range [0..127] and an optional checksum character can be appended to the encoded string.
Code93	6	Code 93 was invented to achieve better information density as compared to code 39. Can also concatenate multiple barcodes using a space as the first character. The extended version covers all ASCII characters.
Code128	7	Code 128 is a modern high-density symbology heavily used in all areas. Code 128: ASCII-characters between 0..127 Subset A: Upper Case + Non-Printable Characters (ASCII 0-31) Subset B: Upper / Lower Case + All Printable Characters Subset C: Numeric with doubled density
Code128A	8	Code128 Subset A: Upper Case + Non-Printable Characters (ASCII 0-31)
Code128B	9	Code128 Subset B: Upper / Lower Case + All Printable Characters
Code128C	10	Code128 Subset C: Numeric with doubled density
DataMatrix	11	DataMatrix is a 2D barcode consisting of black and white "cells" or modules arranged in either a square or rectangular pattern. The information to be encoded can be text or numeric data. Usual data size is from a few bytes up to 1556 bytes. Error correction codes are often used to increase reliability. A Data Matrix symbol can store up to 2,335 alphanumeric characters.
EAN2	12	EAN2 is a 2-digit add-on for EAN 13 and UPC-A. The EAN2 add-on is often used on newspapers and magazines.
EAN5	13	EAN5 is a 5-digit add-on for EAN 13 and UPC-A. The EAN5 add-on is often used for the price of books together with the ISBN code.
EAN8	14	A smaller subset of EAN13.
EAN13	15	Also known as Global Trade Item Numbers (GTIN), EAN are for identifying articles or products uniquely. EAN-13 encodes 2-digit country code, 5-digits manufacturer code and a 5-digits products code.
FIM	16	FIM (Facing Identification Mark) is used by the USPS to assist in the processing of letter mail.
GS1_128	17	GS1-128 (also known as UCC-128 and EAN-128) use Code128 with application identifiers to specify the format and application area of the encoded values.
Interleaved2of5	18	Interleaved 2 of 5 (ITF) is a numeric only barcode used to encode pairs of numbers into a self-checking, high-density barcode format. In this symbology, every two digits are interleaved with each other to create a single symbol. An optional Mod10 checksum character can be appended to the code.
ISBN	19	ISBN is the abbreviation of International Standard Book Number. It uses the symbology EAN-13 and can be optionally extended with 5 Add-On Digits.
ITF14	20	ITF-14 is the GS1 implementation of an Interleaved2of5 barcode.
JAN13	21	JAN (Japanese Numbering Authority) are EAN codes that use the number system "49".
MaxiCode	22	MaxiCode is an international 2D barcode that is currently used by UPS on shipping labels for world-wide addressing and package sorting.
MSI	23	MSI, also known as Modified Plessey, is used primarily to mark retail shelves for inventory control.
PDF417	24	PDF417 is a 2D barcode (stacked symbology) used in a variety of applications, primarily transport, identification cards, and inventory management. PDF stands for Portable Data File and was developed by Symbol Technologies. PDF417 uses built-in error correction to ensure better readability.
Pharmacode	25	Primarily used in pharmaceutical areas.
Postnet	26	PostNet was developed by the United States Postal Service (USPS) to allow faster sorting and routing of mail.
QRCode	27	QR (Quick Response) code is a matrix square barcode capable of encoding large amounts of plain text and binary data. Multiple levels of error detection and correction are supported.
Standard2of5	28	Standard 2 of 5 is a low density numeric only barcode where digits are encoded with 5 bars, 2 of which are always wide. An optional Mod10 checksum character can be appended to the code.
Telepen	29	Telepen was designed in 1972 in the UK to express all 128 ASCII characters without using shift characters for code switching, and using only two different widths for bars and spaces.
UPCA	30	Also known as GTIN-12, is used in the United States for marking of products in retail applications (similar to EAN).
UPCE	31	UPC-E is a variation of UPC-A which allows for a more compact barcode by eliminating "extra" zeros. Since the resulting UPC-E barcode is about half the size as an UPC-A barcode, UPC-E is generally used on products with very small packaging where a full UPC-A barcode couldn't reasonably fit.
