Get barcode in vector form as System.Drawing.Drawing2D.GraphicsPath object

In This Topic

Example: Here is an example that shows how to generate vector barcode as a System.Drawing.Drawing2D.GraphicsPath object.

VB.NET

Public Function GetBarcodeAsGraphicsPath(barcode As BarcodeType, value As String) As GraphicsPath
        ' create the barcode writer
        Dim barcodeWriter As New BarcodeWriter()

        ' set barcode writer settings
        barcodeWriter.Settings.Barcode = barcode
        barcodeWriter.Settings.Value = value

        ' return barcode as GraphicsPath
        Return barcodeWriter.GetBarcodeAsGraphicsPath()
End Function

// The project, which uses this code, must have references to the following assemblies:
// - Vintasoft.Barcode

/// <summary>
/// Returns a barcode in vector form as System.Drawing.Drawing2D.GraphicsPath object.
/// </summary>
/// <param name="barcodeType">Barcode type.</param>
/// <param name="barcodeValue">Barcode value.</param>
/// <returns>A barcode in vector form as System.Drawing.Drawing2D.GraphicsPath object.</returns>
public System.Drawing.Drawing2D.GraphicsPath GetBarcodeAsGraphicsPath(Vintasoft.Barcode.BarcodeType barcodeType, string barcodeValue)
{
    // create the barcode writer
    Vintasoft.Barcode.BarcodeWriter barcodeWriter = new Vintasoft.Barcode.BarcodeWriter();

    // set barcode writer settings
    barcodeWriter.Settings.Barcode = barcodeType;
    barcodeWriter.Settings.Value = barcodeValue;

    // return barcode as GraphicsPath
    return barcodeWriter.GetBarcodeAsGraphicsPath();
}
