The Identcode is a numeric code using the numbers 0..9. This code is used by the Deutsche Post AG (DHL). The base of this code is Code 25 Interleaved, but with a different check digit.
What is Identcode code 11?
It was invented by Identcode Systeme GmbH in Germany in 1989 as a way of fitting a long data message into a small space, and it has been used primarily in the medical and electronics industries. Code 11, also known as USD-8, is a high-density, discrete symbology that is primarily used for the labeling of telecommunications equipment.
What is posicode barcode symbology?
Posicode is a continuous, variable length, non-self-checking, bidirectional barcode symbology that is designed for use within printing processes where it is difficult to precisely control the width of a bar. (Postal Numeric Encoding Technique) is a barcode symbology used by the United States Postal Service to assist in directing mail.
What type of barcode does Australia Post use?
The barcode used by Australia Post is called a 4-state barcode. It comprises four types of bars (states), each of which is identified by both a name and a value. Aztec Code is a two-dimensional matrix symbology containing dark and light square data modules.
What is bc412 barcode?
BC412 is defined in the BC412 Barcode document and in the SEMI T1-95 standard. Channel Code is a linear, continuous, self-checking, bidirectional barcode symbology that encodes between two and seven digits in a short space. CODABLOCK F is a two-dimensional stacked symbology that contains from 2 to 44 stacked Code 128 barcodes.
Identcode Overview
This part talks about the Identcode barcode, a numeric code which encodes number 0-9. This code is mainly used by the Deutsche Post AG (DHL). The encoding pattern of this code is Interleaved 2 of 5, but with a different check digit.

Identcode Barcode Size Setting
As for Identcode size setting, three factors should be considered: module width (i.e. X dimension) barcode width and height.
Identcode Data Encoding
Being a postal barcode symbology, Identcode encodes only numeric digits 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9.
Identcode Encoding Pattern
Identcode barcode uses the Interleaved 2 of 5 encoding scheme, i.e. data is encoded in both bars and spaces. The difference is that Identcode need a compulsory module 10 checksum digit for better data security.
Identcode Barcode Checksum Digit
Identcode specifications require a module 10 checksum digit, which will automatically added by OnBarcode Identcode Generators.
Identcode can be considered as one of the variations of Interleaved 2 of 5. It is also known as German Postal 2 of 5 Identcode, Deutsche Post AG Identcode, Deutsche Fracht Post Identcode, Identcode, Code Identcode, and Deutsche Post AG (DHL).
Data encoded by Identcode is fixed Length. There are 12 digits in total, that is 11 digits data characters and 1 check digit.
As Interleaved 2 of 5 and Code 2 of 5, Identcode is numeric characters. That is to say that the data characters encoded by Identcode are within numeric characters 0 through 9.
Module 10 Checksum Digit is an optional check character when Identcode is used. The checksum digit - Identcode mod 10 is used to enhance the data security of Identcode.
This Symbology is also known as German Postal 2 of 5 Identcode, Deutsche Post AG Identcode, Deutsche Frachtpost Identcode, Identcode, CodeIdentcode, Deutsche Post AG
It is easy to generate and print Identcode barcode images on native Crystal Reports using Visual Studio 2005 and 2008. Barcode Generator for Crystal Report is a fully integrated barcode generation SDK which takes user input to generate Identcode barcode images.
OnBarcode.com provides not only Identcode .NET Barcode Control for Crystal Reports, but also other linear and 2D barcode below:
Linear Barcodes in Crystal Reports: Code 39, Code 128, EAN-8, Identcode, GS1-128, UPC-A, UPC-E, Interleaved 2 of 5, Postnet etc.
2D Barcodes in Crystal Reports: including QR Code, Data Matrix, and PDF-417
Firstly, download .NET Crystal Report Identcode Generator and unzip it. Then follow the steps below to generate Identcode barcode image on Crystal Report in Visual Studio:
Download OnBarcode's Barcode for .NET Windows Forms barcode generator and unzip.
Open or create new Crystal Reports and choose "Standard" in the "Using the Report Wizard" window.
In the "Data" form, expand "Create New Connection" and "ADO.NET"; In upcoming "Connection" form, choose "CustomerDataSet.xsd" in the downloaded folder then click "Finish".
In the "Data" form, add "Customer" as selected tables and click "Next".
In "Fields" form, add all three columns to right fields "Customer".
Drag and drop field "Barcode" to the report Section 3 in CrystalReport1.rpt, and then add "OnBarcode.Barcode.WinForms.dll" as reference.
Open your Form1.cs in Design view, and then double click the form. Enter Form1.cs and write C# or VB codes to create Identcode.
Run the report. Barcode images will be displayed on the Crystal Report.
There are 2 elements that influence Identcode input characters: (a), Identcode valid character set; (b), Identcode valid length.
(a)Identcode Valid Character Set
Identcode barcode is numeric-only linear barcode which encodes:
0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9
Dim barcode As BusinessRefinery.Barcode.Linear barcode = New BusinessRefinery.Barcode.Linear()
barcode.Symbology = BusinessRefinery.Barcode.Symbology.IDENTCODE
barcode.Code = "01234567890"
barcode.drawBarcode2ImageFile
(b)Identcode Valid Length
Identcode barcode is fixed-length linear barcode, which encodes 11 digits only, excluding a checksum digit in the end. VB.NET Identcode barcode allows user to control Identcode barcode length using Code property.
Dim barcode As BusinessRefinery.Barcode.Linear barcode = New BusinessRefinery.Barcode.Linear()
barcode.Symbology = BusinessRefinery.Barcode.Symbology.IDENTCODE
barcode.Code = "98765432101"
barcode.drawBarcode2ImageFile
