Transforming Barcode Generation in Adobe Illustrator

Our custom Illustrator plugin enabled the bulk creation of diverse barcodes with precision and ease.

Challenge

A manufacturing company faced the daunting task of efficiently generating various barcodes, including CODE 39, 128, EAN 8, 13, QR Code, MaxiCode, and Data Matrix. Existing solutions lacked the versatility and scalability required to handle bulk generation and customisation of barcodes with varying symbologies, encoding modes, error correction levels and design preferences.

solution

The Illustrator plugin offered a solution that integrated the company’s barcode generation needs with its design workflow. The plugin allows users to generate barcode images in bulk with unparalleled flexibility. With support for a myriad of symbologies, encoding modes, error correction levels, and customisation options, including CodeText manipulation, image resizing, colorisation, border modification, and checksum generation, it provided a powerful toolkit for barcode creation.

RESULT

After implementing the plugin, the team experienced a remarkable improvement in barcode generation efficiency. Designers could now effortlessly generate a diverse range of barcodes in bulk, easily meeting stringent quality standards and design requirements. This resulted in accelerated production, reduced design iteration cycles and enhanced product labelling precision, ultimately improving overall operational efficiency.
