Data Matrix Decoding library

     NEW! Data Matrix decoding library v.18.01.14 - Print Quality Metrix evaluation - compliant with ISO/IEC TR 29158-2011 Direct Part Mark (DPM) Quality Guideline

2DTG offers Data Matrix decoding library / SDK (ISO/IES 16022) fashioned as follows:

  • Data Matrix decoding library, Enterprise edition (EP) interfaced to Windows 32/64, Linux 32/64, Android 8.x & higher and embedded platforms - designed for industrial grade applications. Print Quality Metrics evaluation in accordance with ISO/IEC 15415 and ISO/IEC TR 29158;
  • Data Matrix decoding library, DPM edition (DPM) interfaced to Windows 32/64, Linux 32/64, Android 8.x & higher and embedded platforms. Print Quality Metrics evaluation in accordance with ISO/IEC TR 29158 DPM Quality Guideline (including Dot Peen applications);
  • Data Matrix decoding library, PRO edition interfaced to Windows 32/64, Linux 32/64 - designed for a wide spectrum of “paper label” applications,  and
  • Data Matrix Decoder / Reader - DEMO applications (for each edition) build in MSVS 2017 and C# MSVS2017 (includes source code)

2DTG's Data Matrix decoding library is GS1 compliant - it returns Symbology Identifier (and separators) that can be used by GS1 users when building their applications.

Network Licensing and Terminal Services

Terminal Services are not supported by our regular RTL - "single instance licensed library". Running library over the network requires network license, which is not bound to any particular workstation on the network, but rather to the network itself. 2DTG offers network licenses for Dongles providing the ability to host multiple, simultaneous client sessions. Activating / deploying the DLL on one instance (either workstation or server - “seat”) will enable all seats (up to the total number of purchased network licenses) to have access.

2DTG’s Data Matrix Encoding library is remarkable for minimizing the symbol size. The special latch characters are used to compact various parts of the message to minimize the size of Data Matrix. These characters allow switching from basic ASCII encoding to one or another encoding schemes when required. For example two digits may be packed into one byte, three letters of English alphabet, into two bytes, and so on.

Special Note:

If you need to "track & trace" your licenses using "backoffice" on our site, please, place purchased on this page licenses, corresponding to different OS, into separate orders. Otherwise, indicate total number of licenses of given product definition in your Order regardless of OS.
