You can now build applications to write and recognize 2D MaxiCode barcodes. The US postal and shipment industries use this standard to ease label recognition on packages. The MaxiCode symbology includes a robust error correction system, and the GdPicture.NET goes a step further in the recognition process thanks to research work on the preprocessing and postprocessing phases.

Just before the end of 2021, we released reading and writing support for another 2D barcode: MaxiCode barcodes.

It completes the list of our 2D barcode support that already includes:

And of course, 1D or linear barcode with dozens of symbologies.

What makes Maxicode barcodes specific?

The United Parcel Service (UPS) created MaxiCode barcodes in 1992. Now in the public domain under the standard ISO/IEC 16023, the MaxiCode symbology is primarily used in the US postal and shipment industry.
