FORMAT GUIDE
About EAN-8
This barcode format is intended for a specialized retail, industrial, logistics or postal workflow. Use it when the receiving system specifically requests this symbology.
Confirm permitted characters, check-digit rules, printed size and scanner compatibility before using production labels.
Practical implementation notes
Retail barcodes identify an item; they do not create a product number. Obtain the GTIN or UPC from your GS1 organization, brand owner or retailer, then place the barcode on a flat, high-contrast area of the pack. Avoid seams, folds, glossy glare and curved areas where possible.
