In this tutorial, we explore how to read barcodes from memory streams in C# using the Iron Barcode library. The process begins with preparing image files and a PDF document containing barcodes. These files are converted into memory streams using the any bitmap class from Iron software.drawing. The barcode reader class then extracts information from these streams. The tutorial demonstrates how to loop through each memory stream object and use console.write line to display decoded barcode information. Additionally, it covers reading barcodes from PDFs transformed into streams, illustrating the versatility of Iron Barcode in handling different formats. By executing the program, we observe how the code efficiently deciphers and presents barcode data from image and PDF streams. This tutorial not only teaches how to read barcodes but also encourages further exploration of Iron Barcode's capabilities for integrating these techniques into C# projects. For more resources, viewers are encouraged to subscribe for additional tutorials and try the software firsthand by downloading it from the provided link.
