Scan Barcode Java

Scan and read barcode data from PDF documents and images. Returns structured JSON with decoded payload and metadata.

Barcode Tools

Scan Barcode Java Overview

Scan Barcode Java library detects and decodes 1D and 2D barcodes, including Data Matrix, Code 128, Code 39, EAN-13, and more. It supports PDF documents, scanned files, and even photographed barcodes in various image formats (PNG, JPG, TIFF). You can restrict detection to a specific format, enable multiple barcode detection, try intensive detection algorithms, and handle inverted or rotated barcodes. The result is returned as JSON with decoded payload and optional metadata.

File

File Supported formats: .pdf .png .jpg .tiff

File to be converted. Value can be URL or file content.

Password

String

Sets the password to open protected PDF.

PageRange

String Default: 1-2000

Set PDF page range to convert. Example 1-10 or 1,2,5.

BarcodeFormat

Collection Default: auto

The format of the barcode to detect. Select 'Auto' to detect all supported formats.

Values:   auto code128 code39 qrcode datamatrix ean13 ean8 pdf417 aztec upca upce itf14

DetectMultiple

Bool Default: False

If set to true, the converter will attempt to detect multiple barcodes.

EnhancedDetection

Bool Default: False

If set to true, the converter will use more intensive algorithms to detect barcodes.

IncludeInverted

Bool Default: False

If set to true, the converter will also try to detect barcodes with inverted colors.

AutoRotate

Bool Default: False

If set to true, the converter will automatically rotate the view to detect barcodes.

StoreFile

Bool Default: False

When the StoreFile parameter is set to True, your converted file is written to ConvertAPI’s encrypted, temporary storage and made available via a time-limited secure download URL, valid for up to 3 hours. After this period, the file is permanently deleted.

When StoreFile is set to False, conversion happens entirely in-memory. The raw file bytes are streamed back in the API response without touching disk or external storage, ensuring maximum security and zero persistence so that only you can access the content.
