PDF417-ActiveX
$149 - RKD Software

PDF417 Barcode ActiveX Control. PDF417, or Portable Data File 417, is a two-dimensional stacked bar code symbology capable of encoding over a kilobyte of data per label. This is important for applications where a bar code must be more than merely an identifier such as an index to reference a database.
The "portable data file" approach is well suited to applications where it is impractical to store item information in a database or where the database is not accessible when and where the item's bar code is read. Because a PDF417 symbol can store so much data, item data such as the content of shipping manifest or equipment maintenance history can be carried on the item, without requiring access to a remote database.
Our PDF417-ActiveX Control has all the features necessary to easily add professional quality barcodes to any Windows application including Web pages, database reporting and labeling, product packaging, document tracking, postal bar coding and special purpose barcode labeling applications.
It is an extremely easy and powerful tool that will work flawlessly with any Windows application that supports ActiveX technology including Visual Basic, Visual FoxPro, C++, Internet Explorer Web pages, Microsoft Word, Excel, Access, etc.
Simply insert the PDF417 Bar Code ActiveX Control into your application and specify a few properties in the properties window and your desired bar codes will be generated automatically.
The PDF417-ActiveX Control supports data binding so you can bind fields in a database to the Control and generate barcodes for each data record automatically. The data binding capability makes it trivially easy to produce reports and labels containing bar codes using any database that supports ActiveX technology including Microsoft Access or Visual Basic.

DataMatrix ActiveX
$149 - RKD Software

DataMatrix ActiveX lets anyone add professional-quality 2D DataMatrix barcodes to any Windows application such as Visual Basic, Visual FoxPro, Visual C++, Internet Explorer Web pages, Microsoft Word, Excel, Access, and others. DataMatrix, the public domain code from RVSI Acuity CiMatrix, is a 2D matrix symbology designed to pack a lot of information into a very small space. The symbology employs Reed-Solomon error correction algorithms with data redundancy to guarantee a fast and accurate recognition even if 60% of a barcode is damaged. The DataMatrix symbol can store between one and 3116 numeric or 2335 alphanumeric characters. It is also scalable between a 1-mil square to a 14-inch square. This means that a Data Matrix symbol has a maximum theoretical density of 500 million characters to the inch.

DataMatrix ActiveX allows you to add barcodes to database reporting and labeling, product packaging, document tracking, postal bar coding and special purpose barcode labeling applications. There is also an ability to use DataMatrix in an internet or intranet project. Thanks to its total simplicity, barcodes can be easily added even by ordinary office workers who have no deep programming knowledge. All they need to do is to insert the DataMatrix ActiveX control into an application, specify a few properties in the properties window and a desired barcode will be generated automatically. Advanced developers will discover all needed properties and methods for adding barcodes to their applications. The functionality of each barcode control is implemented in a single small file, which is great for distribution with an application. DataMatrix ActiveX has been tested using Microsoft Web Application Stress Tool and demonstrated flawless performance. Its installation package contains examples of use in Access, Excel, Word, Visual C++, Visual Basic, and Internet Explorer.

BarcodeReader-ActiveX
$99 - RKD Software

BarcodeReader-ActiveX is an ActiveX component that can provide you with complete information about a barcode by scanning its image. With no delay you'll be able to know all main parameters of each barcode, such as its type, text, coordinates, raw data, etc. The component reads corrupted barcodes, has a great performance and is very easy to distribute.

BarcodeReader-ActiveX is designed to decode all major barcode types: Interleaved 2/5, Code 39, Code 39 Extended, Code 128, Code 11, Codabar, EAN-13, EAN-8, UPC-A and UPC-E.
The component supports multiple processing, so it can read all barcodes from an image simultaneously. It can also read barcodes with no quiet zone, which allows it to correctly recognize all barcodes regardless of their position (canted, upside-down, etc.).

The refined scanning engine doesn't require an image to be clear. It'll successfully read barcodes from blurred, noisy and low resolution images. In case a barcode itself is corrupted (torn or crumpled), it's not a problem either. BarcodeReader will read it. What's more, it can recognize barcodes printed on most of the surfaces, including plastic and distorted ones.

For those whose application can read from a camera, the data stream support feature can come in handy. Not only does the component read barcodes from images but it also allows you to specify a data stream as a source. In that case, saving images to files won't be needed.

All the features of BarcodeReader-ActiveX are accurately delivered in one tiny .dll file making the component easy to distribute. You will also find no problems with using the component in any environment like Visual C++, Visual Basic, VB .NET and C#. It can be smoothly integrated with any ActiveX container, e.g. IExplorer or MS Office applications. Along with the component, you'll find the sample source code for C/C++, Visual Basic, etc.
