Print UPC barcodes, EAN barcodes, JAN barcodes, Bookland barcodes (ISBN), and ISSN bar codes from within any Microsoft Windows, Macintosh, or Linux/UNIX application. The barcode fonts in UPCTools can be used with your desktop publishing, database, spreadsheet, or custom application. It’s literally as easy as changing fonts.

UPC bar codes, EAN, bar codes, JAN bar codes, Bookland bar codes, and ISSN bar codes are found on retail items that get scanned at the cash register. Everyone doing package design needs to create these barcodes. UPC barcode symbols are also found on shipping labels, forms, and catalogs. Book covers contain a Bookland bar code based on the ISBN number. Outside of the US and Canada, EAN bar codes and JAN barcodes are used. International periodicals have an ISSN bar code. All of these different types of bar codes can be made using UPCTools.

The UPCTools font package includes ten different fonts used to create full–height or half–height (truncated) symbols, with or without the human–readable digits beneath the bars. Both our bundled wizard and our free sample code calculate the UPC check digit for you. Whether you’re creating camera–ready artwork or database reports, UPCTools is the tool you want. Use the bundled utility to create UPC symbols quickly and easily.
