ISBN-13 Barcode Software and Fonts
When you need to create ISBN-13 barcodes Azalea’s UPCTools is the obvious solution. Compatible with any Microsoft Windows, Macintosh or Linux/UNIX application, the barcode fonts in UPCTools are flexible, fast and easy to use. Quickly and conveniently create ISBN-13 barcodes for Photoshop, Illustrator, Excel, Access, Crystal Reports or any custom database or design application you like.
ISBN stands for International Standard Book Number, a unique commercial book identifier. The ‘13’ in ISBN-13 refers to the total number of digits in the barcode- twelve numbers of the ISBN plus one check digit. The barcode is typically made up of five components: a GS1 prefix of 978 or 979, the country group identifier, the publisher code, the item number, and a mod 11 check digit. Since January 1, 2007, ISBNs are 13 digits, compatible with Bookland EAN-13s.
ISBNs are often followed by a five digit supplemental code. The supplemental contains the book’s price. In the United States, the prefix 5 is used to denote US dollars. The supplemental is then filled out to total five digits. For example a book that costs $17.99 would have the supplemental code of 51799. A price of $6.56 would be expressed in the supplemental as 50656.
UPCTools comes with ten different barcode fonts that print both full- and half-height barcodes, and with or without human readables (the digits below the barcode itself). Both the software Tool and our sample code calculate the necessary check digit for ISBN-13 barcodes. To create one or a handful of ISBN-13 barcodes, simply open the Tool, create your ISBN-13s and paste them into your label or design application. To create ISBN-13 barcodes in batches, open your Excel spreadsheet, Access database or Crystal Report and call UPCTools to turn an exhaustive list of data into barcodes in a matter of seconds.
With UPCTools you can also create and print UPC-A, UPC-E, EAN-13, EAN-8, JAN and ISSN barcodes. UPCTools is available for Windows, Macintosh, Linux/UNIX and a variety of other platforms. To learn more about UPCTools read the UPCTools documentation here.
