The UPC (Universal Product Code) Barcode is used on virtually all retail products in North America (United States and Canada). The only exception is for books, which use the Bookland bar code. Each UPC barcode is a unique 12 digit number that identifies one specific product. All UPC bar code numbers are assigned by GS1. You can not just make your own barcode number up. UPC bar codes can range in size from 1.0 x .25 to 1.5 x 1 in size (width x height).
The solution. The fastest and easiEST way to make your own UPC barcode it to use our software. You just type any UPC bar code number into the software and click a button to build a barcode. Our software will calculate your checksum and make the UPC bar code for you. You can print as many barcodes as you like, on labels, in your packaging, or even export the bar code in standard graphic formats and send it to someone else to print. You control both the height and width of the UPC barcode you want to print.
Printing labels. Printing sheets of UPC bar codes has never been easier. Just run our utility, type any UPC number in, and generate a barcode with a single click.
