MSI was developed by the MSI Data Corporation, based on the
original Plessey Code.
MSI, also known as Modified Plessey, is used primarily to mark
retail shelves for inventory control. MSI is a continuous, non-self-checking
symbology.
While the length of an MSI barcode can be of any length, a
given application usually implements a fixed-length code.
Note: Please refer to the Class
Reference documentation for more information about the properties and methods
stated in this document.
In order to get a MSI barcode image, please follow these
steps:

Setting up dimensions and quiet zones:
-
Set the BarWidth and BarHeight

-
Set the QuietZoneWidth
property (Value is expressed in Inches)
-
Set the TopMargin and BottomMargin properties (Values are
expressed in Inches)
-
Set the Code
property with the value to encode. It can be numbers 0 through 9 only
-
Barcode Professional will automatically generate and append the checksum value
-
Tip 1: You can disable this behavior by setting up to False the AddChecksum
