In this tutorial, we explore the process of creating barcodes as streams in C using the Iron Barcode library. Assuming Iron Barcode is installed on your machine, we dive straight into the coding process by importing the Iron Barcode namespace in our program.cs file. The tutorial demonstrates how to create a barcode containing the URL of Iron Barcode using the Data Matrix encoding scheme. Once the barcode is created, it is converted and exported into various formats such as JPEG, PNG, TIFF, GIF, and PDF using the methods provided by Iron Barcode. Additionally, the barcode is converted to a default stream if no specific format is specified. The tutorial concludes by running the program and successfully generating and exporting the barcodes. Users are encouraged to explore the extensive functionalities offered by Iron Barcode and to subscribe for more tutorials or try Iron Software through a trial subscription.
