Getting Started with WPF Barcode

This article will guide you through the steps needed to add a basic RadBarcode control in your application.

Assembly References

In order to use RadBarcode, you will need to add references to the following assemblies:

  • Telerik.Windows.Controls
  • Telerik.Windows.Controls.DataVisulization
  • Telerik.Windows.Data

You can find the required assemblies for each control from the suite in the Controls Dependencies help article.

Defining a Barcode

If your app is setup, you are ready to add a RadBarcode control to it. Example 1 demonstrates a QRCode symbology. For more details on the available Barcode symbologies go to the Supported Types topic.
