Barcode Graphics for UPC or EAN Numbers |
Please note: This page is intended for barcode customers who meet any 1 of the following 3 criteria:
|
||
UPC Barcode(aka UPC-A or GTIN-12) |
||
| Retail products in the North American market feature a single standard UPC barcode. The exceptions to this rule are: barcodes for books, CBD, greeting cards, magazines, medical, and produce.  |
 |
EAN Barcode(aka EAN-13 or GTIN-13) |
||||||||||
 |
The EAN code system is used in all countries outside of the United States and Canada. EAN codes look similar to UPC codes but are 13 digits long. |
 |

What dimensions should my UPC code be? |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||
For your convenience, we offer the UPC barcode graphics in 3 different heights:
We also offer the graphics in 2 fully-resizable vector formats: vector-EPS and AI. (Between the two, we recommend vector-EPS dueto its versatility and smaller file size.) If you decide to do your own resizing, please mind the following: Width is much more important than height! The width influences the distance between the bars and how well the laser can distinguish between them.
Simply Barcodes strongly recommends test-scanning any UPC code prototype produced by your manufacturing facility before going into mass production. (Please note that all of Simply Barcodes pre-printed barcode label orders are test-scanned and confirmed scannable by our equipment. Click here to learn more about our label printing service.) |

In what format are my UPC or EAN codes created? |

| For your convenience, you choose your barcode graphic from four different formats so that your graphic artist, printing company, or manufacturing facility can work with your barcode graphic in their preferred software. | |||||||||||||||||

How do I get my UPC or EAN codes on my product? |
|
| Providing the barcode image to your graphic artist and including it in the design of your packaging prior to manufacturing is the easiest and most economical way of getting your barcode on your product. If your product packaging has already been printed, you will need barcode labels. If you would like to order pre-printed barcode labels, please select this option when ordering your UPC or EAN code. If you have already completed your order, then click label printing to order labels. All orders received before 2 p.m. EST on business days are completed the same day and shipped for free within the continental U.S. |

“Our initial experience of dealing in the complicated world of UPC and barcodes was simplified tremendously by the quick and helpful answers provided by Simply Barcodes. Obtaining our first couple of barcodes was easy, economical and fast. We hope to be able to continue to add products and our use of Simply Barcodes will continue.”
Victor Son

“I’d like to thank you for your service which was very good, very fast and the attendants were efficient and helpful. The barcode works perfectly and I have no problems at all to use it in Brazil. The only thing is that the price is very expensive for us because the Brazilian’s currency is lower than the US. But I prefer paying more for a good and fast service. Visit our site and have a look at whole wheat ready pasta.”
Caroline Martins
Monte Verde, Brazil -
“I am happy with my experience with Simply Barcodes. I own a digital printing shop and I was impressed with the ease of the process. All we had to do was order and that same day we were able to put the barcode in the packaging artwork. I did not have any problems.”
