What this barcode generator does

Barcode Generator creates machine-readable barcodes from a value you supply. CODE128 is flexible for internal labels, EAN-13 and UPC-A are retail formats with a fixed digit count and check digit, and ITF-14 is used for cartons.

The pattern is rendered with JsBarcode in this tab. Validate a retail code with your supplier before printing a production run, and test the printed symbol with a real scanner at the intended size.

Why use it

  • Print a short-lived internal label without buying barcode software.
  • Produce an SVG that stays sharp at any print size.
  • Check that a retail number encodes before sending artwork to a printer.

How to use it

  1. 1Choose a format.
  2. 2Enter a value that matches the format's rules.
  3. 3Adjust the module width and height if the preview looks cramped.
  4. 4Download the SVG for print or a PNG for screen use.

Worked examples

Internal asset tag

Input

CODE128, value “KIT-2026-0042”

Output

A barcode with text underneath, downloadable as SVG.

Retail EAN-13

Input

12 digits; the generator computes the 13th check digit

Output

A valid EAN-13 symbol if the supplied digits are well formed.

Common mistakes

  • Stretching a barcode non-proportionally, which can make it unscannable.
  • Printing below the minimum module width for the scanner and distance.
  • Assuming a generated check digit makes a retail number legitimate; the number must be assigned to the product.

Frequently asked questions

Which formats are supported?
CODE128, CODE39, EAN-13, UPC-A and ITF-14. Some formats require specific digit counts or characters.
Is the output vector?
The SVG download is vector. The PNG is raster and should be exported at the final print size.
Does it verify a retail code?
It checks the format and check digit where applicable. It cannot confirm that the number is registered or belongs to you.
Can I add a logo?
Not in this tool. Use the QR code with logo tool for QR codes; adding a logo to a linear barcode can break scanning.
