Barcode Generator: a worked example

A retail system needs an EAN-13 barcode for a new product and you only have the 12-digit prefix, not the final check digit.

First 12 digits

012345678901
Barcode Generator produces

EAN-13 barcode

0123456789012  (check digit 2 computed and appended)

EAN-13's 13th digit is a checksum: alternate digits are weighted ×1 and ×3, summed, and the digit needed to reach the next multiple of 10 is appended (here, 2). The tool computes it for you and renders the bars at the correct module width, so a scanner will actually read it instead of rejecting an invalid code.

Frequently asked questions

Which format should I use?

Code 128 is versatile and supports the full ASCII set. Use EAN-13 or UPC-A for retail products, and Code 39 for simple alphanumeric labels.

Why does my barcode not scan?

Check that the data matches the format requirements (e.g., EAN-13 needs exactly 12 or 13 digits) and that the print resolution is sufficient.
