EAN-13 Barcode Description

The application was developed to be a small tool for creating EAN-13 Barcodes with C#. The EAN-13 barcode is composed of 13 digits, which are made up of the following sections: the first 2 or 3 digits are the country code, the next 5 to 7 digits are the manufacturer code, the next 3 to 5 digits are the product code, and the last digit is the checksum digit.Country Code The Country Code is a 2 or 3 digit number, which is used to identify the country that assigned the manufacturer code. All EAN-13 barcodes that begin with "0" are UPC-A barcodes.Manufacturer CodeThe EAN Manufacturer Code is a variable length number. Typically, 5 digit codes are assigned to companies, however, some companies do not produce enough products to warrant a 5 digit product code, and in such cases the EAN will issue Manufacturer Codes longer than 5 digits.Product CodeThe manufacturer is free to assign its own product codes, but they must make sure that each product code is unique within their product codes. The product codes can be as few as 3 digits long, or as long as 5 digits depending on the length of the country and manufacturer codes.Checksum DigitThe checksum digit is calculated using the country code, manufacturer's code, and the product code. The odd numbers starting with the right most digits are multiplied by 3 and added to the sum, while the even numbers are simply added to the sum. The reason for the EAN-13 check sum being calculated in reverse order (starting with the right most digit and considering it as being odd instead of even) is for compatibility with UPC-A barcodes. The modulus of 10 is then taken of the summed total. This is subtracted from 10, and the modulus of 10 is taken again.
