Bar Code random numbers

Hello, We are using your bar code product Lic ver 3.0, the issue we are having when it reads bar code we see random numbers, also some of the tif file does not read. In the screen shot second part is bar code stating with 99 but first part (3141764) we are not sure where that came from. Sometimes it gives some random number our bar code starts with 99, Attach 2 screen shots examples. Here is the code we need your help.


thanks

Hi Solomon,


Thank you for contacting support. We’re working over your query and will get back to you soon.

Hi Solomon,


Thank you for being patient. Please provide us your sample barcode images for testing purposes. We’ll take a closer look and reply you accordingly.

I attach two examples they both read the bar code but as you can see, first attachment first part 22683, second part is bar code stating with 99. The second attachment same thing it has that extra number 18497 and sending part is bar code starts with 99. So we are not sure what is extra numbers in front, Some of the tif images not reading bar code with same resolution.

Hi Solomon,


Thank you for supplying sample barcode pictures. We have tested them against the latest build of Aspose.BarCode for .NET 6.9.0 and managed to replicate the problems said. It looks as incorrect recognition of the codes those not starting with “99”. We have logged these issues as follows:

File Name: 20150521125600016_0001.tif
BARCODENET-34180 - Incorrect recognition of Planet code from the tif image

File Name: 20150521125508119_0001.tif
BARCODENET-34181 - Incorrect recognition of Planet code from the tif image

Hi Solomon,


Thank you for the inquiry. Please note, the image binarization hints property has been marked as obsolete. Please use barcode recognition modes as narrated in this help topic: Switch Barcode Recognition Modes According to the Requirement

We did not notice the out of memory exception message. Please use this sample code and let us know your feedback:

[.NET, C#]
string filename = @“C:\AB\test382\20150521125508119_0001.tif”;
using (BarCodeReader reader = new BarCodeReader(filename, BarCodeReadType.Planet))
{
reader.RecognitionMode = RecognitionMode.MaxQuality;
while (reader.Read())
{
Console.WriteLine(reader.GetReadType() + ": " + reader.GetCodeText());
}
}


Results:
File Name: 20150521125508119_0001.tif
Planet: 990000836439
Planet: 990000836439

File Name: 20150521125600016_0001.tif
Planet: 990000837284 Planet: 990000837284

We hope, this helps. In case the error occurred, then please provide us your system environment details, e.g.

  • Operating System name, edition and 32 & 64 bit (e.g. Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit)
  • Visual Studio, edition and other details?
  • Local language and settings etc?
  • .NET Framework version of your application project?
  • Any other information that you think is necessary.

It'll help us to be more specific.

Thank you Imran for response. I tested with your code some of them are reading incomplete.


For example
3drfuosi.xe1.tiff 990000857225,7225 and wihboij0.ked.tiff 9900,990000857231

We set to read both sides So it suppose to read complete bar codes.
First example read first part correct second part reads last 4 digits,
Second example reads first 4 digits and second part reads correct barcode.

OS Windows Prof 64bit
Visual Studio 2013
.Net 4.5

Hi Solomon,

Many thanks for writing back. Could you please provide both these files (3drfuosi.xe1.tiff) & (wihboij0.ked.tiff) for testing? Furthermore, you shared about reading both sides of the barcode so, could you please elaborate if you are trying to read the barcode by using different orientation angles? Your feedback will help us in better understanding your concerns and getting back to you with a solution so, kindly let us know.

We look forward to your feedback.
