Class DataMatrixWriter

A class allowing for advanced control on the generation of DataMatrix type barcodes.

DataMatrixWriter allows setting of the DataMatrix shape.

Generated Barcodes can be exported as Images, Bitmaps, Files, or Streams.

Inheritance

System.Object

DataMatrixWriter

Namespace: IronBarCode

Assembly: IronBarCode.dll

Syntax

public static class DataMatrixWriter : Object

Methods

CreateDataMatrix(Byte[], DataMatrixWriter.DataMatrixShape, Int32, Int32)

Renders a DataMatrix.

Overload methods and methods of the created GeneratedBarcode object allow for barcode sizes and colors to be customized.

Declaration

public static GeneratedBarcode CreateDataMatrix(byte[] binaryData, DataMatrixWriter.DataMatrixShape shape, int width = 500, int height = 500)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
System.Byte[]	binaryData	The value of the DataMatrix as a byte array.
DataMatrixWriter.DataMatrixShape	shape	The shape of the DataMatrix.
System.Int32	width	The width of the DataMatrix in pixels.
System.Int32	height	The height of the DataMatrix in pixels.

Returns

Type	Description
GeneratedBarcode	A GeneratedBarcode object for the DataMatrix which can be manipulated, annotated, and saved to an IronDrawing object, an image file, a PDF, a MediaURL, or a data stream.

CreateDataMatrix(Byte[], Int32)

Renders a Square DataMatrix. For rendering of a rectangular DataMatrix, please find another overload of this method that supports width and height.

Overload methods and methods of the created GeneratedBarcode object allow for barcode sizes and colors to be customized.

See method overloads for rectangular DataMatrix shapes.

CreateDataMatrix(Stream, DataMatrixWriter.DataMatrixShape, Int32, Int32)

Renders a DataMatrix.

Overload methods and methods of the created GeneratedBarcode object allow for barcode sizes and colors to be customized.

Declaration

public static GeneratedBarcode CreateDataMatrix(Stream binaryDataStream, DataMatrixWriter.DataMatrixShape shape, int width = 500, int height = 500)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
