Barcode HTML Helper Settings

The BarcodeHtmlHelper.EmbedBarcodeImage method requires a string parameter that is composed of a special formatted string, similar to the Query String used with a URL. For instance:

@Html.Raw(BarcodeHtmlHelper.EmbedBarcodeImage("S=QRCode&C=ABC12345", "Alt Text", "", ""))

In this sample, the setting S is for specifying the Barcode Symbology you want to create i.e the barcode type; and the setting C is for specifying the value to encode in the specified Symbology.

You can specify many other settings like Bar's Width and Height, DPI, Font, additional Text, etc. by concatenating the SETTING-ID=SETTING-VALUE through ampersand (&) chars as shown in the sample code above and by referring to the list of valid settings in the following table.

Barcode Settings

The following settings (in the first column) have the same meaning of the associated BarcodeProfessional property (in the second column). The third column shows an example for each setting. In addition, please refer to Note column for some additional info about each setting.

IMPORTANT

The first setting must be S (for Symbology), followed by C (for value to encode "Code" property) and finally followed by any other settings.
SETTING-ID=SETTING-VALUE pairs are separated by & (ampersand character).
