💡 Tips for Best Results

1. Contrast: Ensure high contrast between bars and background for reliable scanning.

2. Size: Bar width of 2-3 pixels works well for most applications. Larger barcodes are easier to scan.

3. Margins: Leave white space (quiet zones) around barcodes for optimal scanning.

4. Format Selection: Choose the format based on your industry standard or scanner compatibility.

5. Resolution: For printing, use PNG at high resolution (300 DPI) or SVG for scalability.

6. Testing: Always test scans with your specific scanner before mass production.

7. Data Validation: Verify data is correct before generating barcodes (especially for EAN/UPC).

8. Storage: Keep source files for regeneration if needed without recreating barcodes.
