What barcode types can I generate?

You can generate CODE128, EAN-13, UPC-A, CODE39, ITF-14, MSI, and Pharmacode barcodes. CODE128 is the flexible default that encodes letters and numbers.

Can I download the barcode as an image?

Yes. Once generated, you can download the barcode as a PNG file with a white background, ready to print or place in a document.

Which barcode type should I use?

CODE128 is a versatile default for general use. EAN-13 and UPC-A are for retail products and require specific digit counts. CODE39 is common in inventory and logistics. The tool validates your input for the chosen type.

Why does my value show an error?

Some barcode types require a specific format — for example EAN-13 needs 12 or 13 digits. If your value does not match the type's rules, the tool shows an error so you can correct it.

Is it free and private?

Yes. The barcode is generated entirely in your browser, so your data never leaves your device, and there is no signup.

Every Common Barcode Type

Different jobs need different barcode standards. CODE128 is the flexible all-rounder, encoding both letters and numbers for general use. EAN-13 and UPC-A are the retail standards printed on consumer products. CODE39 is widely used in inventory, logistics, and industrial settings. ITF-14 appears on shipping cartons, and MSI and Pharmacode serve specialized uses. The tool supports them all and validates your input against each type's rules.

Live Preview and PNG Download

The barcode renders instantly as you type, so you can see exactly what you will get. When it looks right, download it as a PNG with a clean white background, ready to print on labels, add to packaging artwork, or place in a document. You can also set the bar color to match your design needs.

Choosing the Right Format

If you are unsure, CODE128 is a safe, versatile default for most in-house needs like asset tags and internal tracking. For products sold at retail, you will typically need EAN-13 (used worldwide) or UPC-A (common in North America), and these require the correct number of digits — the tool will tell you if your value does not fit. For warehouse and inventory systems, CODE39 is a common, widely-supported choice.
