Identcode Barcode Introduction
Identcode is also known as German Postal 2 of 5 Identcode, Deutsche Post AG Identcode, Deutsche Frachtpost Identcode, Identcode, Code Identcode, Deutsche Post AG (DHL).
Identcode barcode Symbology is used by German Post (Deutsche Post AG) (Deutsche Frachtpost). The Identcode contains a tracking number providing an identification of the customer (sender) and the mail piece.
The value to encode length is fixed to 11 digits plus 1 digit checksum which is automatically calculated by Java Barcode. The value to encode must have the following structure:
2 digits for ID of primary distribution center
3 digits for Customer ID
6 digits for Mailing number
1 digit is the checksum digit

Identcode Encoding Data Scope
Identcode Barcode for Java supports:
0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9
How to Generate Identcode Barcode in Java Class?
The following Java code illustrates how to create a Identcode barcode, and output to various formats.
1 Linear linear = new Linear(); 2 linear.setType(Linear.IDENTCODE); 3 linear.setData("12345678901"); 4 linear.renderBarcode("c:/barcode.gif");
Under java_barcode_trial package, copy barcode folder to your java servlet container like tomcat.
Restart tomcat. Now you have installed successfully
To test your installation, open your web browser and navigate to: http://YourDomain:Port/barcode/linear?Data=12345678901&Type=IDENTCODE.
To create barcode image in your JSP or html page, you need pass the url to IMG tag src value. For example, <img src="http://YourDomain:Port/barcode/linear?Data=12345678901&Type=IDENTCODE" /> Using this method, it will not generate any barcode images in your server side.
The second method is to generate barcode images in your server side.
Create a barcode image in server side, like Linear linear = new Linear(); linear.setData("12345678901"); linear.setType(Linear.IDENTCODE); linear.renderBarcode("C:/Tools/Tomcat 5.5/webapps/YourWebApp/barcode-images/barcode.gif");
In your JSP or HTML page, you need use IMG tag to display generated image, like <img src="http://YourDomain:Port/YourWebApp/barcode-images/barcode.gif" />
How to Generate Barcode Identcode Image in Jasper Reports, iReport, Eclipse BIRT?
Set the type property to Linear.IDENTCODE Servlet URL Parameter: "Type". Value: 20. Sample: &Type=20.
Set the data property with the value to encode. Type is String. Servlet URL Parameter: Data.
Valid Data Scope:
0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9
Valid Data Format:The valid data length should be 11 digits. And extra last digit is the checksum digit, do not include it in the data property.
Sample: "12345678901".
addCheckSum property is not applied here. Barcode Library will always add a check character in the last digit.
Barcode image size settings.
Set property uom (Unit of Measure) for properties X, Y, leftMargin, rightMargin, topMargin and bottomMargin. Default is Linear.UOM_PIXEL (0). Valid values are Linear.UOM_PIXEL (0), Linear.UOM_CM (1), Linear.UOM_Inch (2). Servlet URL Parameter: "UOM". Value: 0 (pixel), 1 (cm), 2 (inch). Sample: &UOM=0.
Set the X (for barcode module width) and Y (for barcode module height) properties. Both types are float. Default X is 3. Y is 75. Servlet URL Parameter: "X", "Y". Sample: &X=3&Y=75.
Set the leftMargin, rightMargin, topMargin and bottomMargin properties, and types are all float. Default values are 0 for all 4 margin settings. Servlet URL Parameter: "LeftMargin", "RightMargin", "TopMargin", "BottomMargin". Sample: &LeftMargin=0.
Set the resolution property (Value is expressed in DPI - Dots per inch). Default is 72 dpi. Servlet URL Parameter: "Resolution". Sample: &Resolution=72.
Setting up text style in barcode image.
Set the showText properties. If this value is true, barcode data will be displayed with the barcode. Default is true. Servlet URL Parameter: "ShowText". Value: "t" (true), "f" (false). Sample: &ShowText=t.
Set the textFont property. The font used to display text in barcode image. Default is new Font("Arial", Font.PLAIN, 11). Servlet URL Parameter: "TextFont". Value format: [font name]|[font style]|[font size]. Sample Values: &TextFont=Arial|Bold|12
With rotate property, you can display barcode horizontally or vertically. Default value is 0. Servlet URL Parameter: "Rotate". Sample: &Rotate=0. Value can be:
0 (Linear.ANGLE_0),
1 (Linear.ANGLE_90),
2 (Linear.ANGLE_180),
3 (Linear.ANGLE_270).
