GS1 DataBar Omnidirectional

GS1 DataBar Omnidirectional barcode in PHP: 14 digit GTIN input, check digit, code example and SVG output

- Nicola Asuni

GS1 DataBar was designed for the things EAN and UPC symbols do not fit: loose produce, small pharmaceutical packs, coupons. It carries a full GTIN-14 in a symbol 96 modules wide.

The omnidirectional variant is 33 modules high, enough for a slot scanner to read it at any orientation.
