Public Methods

public static void extractBarcodes (PDFDoc src, String output_file_path)

Perform barcode extraction on a PDF. Scan the PDF for barcodes, and save a JSON array of detected barcodes to the specified file. By default, this will search for all supported barcode types in all orientations. The time required to process the document will depend on the number of barcode types and orientations to search for. Thus, the default behavior is the slowest. To improve speed, specify a subset of barcode types and orientations to search for using the options parameter. Very small barcodes may not be detected. While there is no hard limit to barcode size, accuracy will begin to decrease as barcodes get smaller. The smallest barcode that can be detected will depend on a number of factors, including page size, barcode type, and (if applicable) image quality.

Parameters
src The source document.
output_file_path The path to the output file.

public static String extractBarcodesAsString (PDFDoc src)

Perform barcode extraction on a PDF. Scan the PDF for barcodes, and return a JSON array of detected barcodes as a string. By default, this will search for all supported barcode types in all orientations. The time required to process the document will depend on the number of barcode types and orientations to search for. Thus, the default behavior is the slowest. To improve speed, specify a subset of barcode types and orientations to search for using the options parameter. Very small barcodes may not be detected.

The smallest barcode that can be detected will depend on a number of factors, including page size, barcode type, and (if applicable) image quality.

Parameters
src The source document.
Returns
  • JSON string representing barcode extraction results.

public static boolean isModuleAvailable ()

Find out whether the Barcode Extraction Module is available (and licensed).

Returns
  • Returns true if barcode extraction can be performed.
