ZXing Android Generate 1D barcode

Question

I\'ve gone through the examples here regarding encoding barcode:

Answer 1

To encode/generate 1D barcode

Intent intent = new Intent("com.google.zxing.client.android.ENCODE");

intent.putExtra("ENCODE_FORMAT", "UPC_A");
intent.putExtra("ENCODE_DATA", "12345678901");

startActivity(intent);

The key here is ENCODE_FORMAT & the 1D barcode format in this case UPC_A & the data (for UPC code it has to be 11/12 digits) to encode

Hope this helps
