Barcodes power inventory, pricing, and tracking systems across retail and logistics. Large operations have enterprise systems generating codes automatically. Smaller operations - Etsy sellers, farmers market vendors, home organizers, small warehouses - need barcodes without enterprise infrastructure.
The Barcode Generator produces standard barcode formats readable by scanners and phone apps. Create UPC codes for products entering retail channels. Generate Code 128 for shipping labels. Use QR codes for inventory that needs more data than linear barcodes hold. The tool outputs barcodes in image formats suitable for label printing, document embedding, or digital display. Understanding which barcode format suits which purpose matters - UPC for retail products, Code 128 for logistics, QR for anything needing URLs or substantial data.
