decode barcode using Zen.barcode library

Burhan Barhoush

can someone please guide me how we can read barcode using Zen.barcode. I have created a barcode using this library. but I didn't know how to read and decode it. here is the code that creates the barcode:

Zen.Barcode.Code128BarcodeDraw barcode = Zen.Barcode.BarcodeDrawFactory.Code128WithChecksum;

pictureBox2.Image = barcode.Draw(temp, 50);

I don’t how ZEN barcode works. However, you can use LEADTOOLS for writing and reading barcodes, the reading code is as simple as this:
BarcodeEngine engine = new BarcodeEngine();
BarcodeReader reader = engine.Reader;
BarcodeData[] barcode = reader.ReadBarcodes(image, LeadRect.Empty, 0, null);
if (barcode != null)
   Console.WriteLine("Data:{0}, Found at location {1}", barcode[0].Value, barcode[0].Bounds);
You can find more details in the following link:

Also, you can use the cloud services for reading barcodes, see this link:

I know little about Zen.Barcode library. But you could try Free Spire.Barcode to read a barcode easily from a popular image format.
string data = Spire.Barcode.BarcodeScanner.ScanOne("Barcode.png");
If an image contains more than one barcode, then you could read the barcodes like this
string[] data = Spire.Barcode.BarcodeScanner.Scan("Barcodes.png");
