Scaling a barcode causes it be unscannable
posted

We are creating price labels to be printed and then scanned at the POS.

We've found that if we scale the barcode down to fit onto the label it can become unscannable.

This depends on the length of the SKU, but it appears that the first and last lines of the barcode are either clipped or scaled in such a way that they become too thin so that the scanner doesn't recognise them as the start and end of the barcode.

Is there a minimum width we need to enforce when the user is scaling the barcode element to fit on the label?

We've spotted this with the XamCode128Barcode which is the one used by most of our customers.
