Using GS1 DataBar Expanded
GS1 DataBar Expanded, formerly RSS Expanded, can carry more than a product number for compatible retail systems. Put the field code in parentheses before each value. Required separators are inserted automatically. Unlike DataBar Limited, it is not restricted to GTINs starting with 0 or 1.
Download PNG for documents or SVG for a sharp, resizable print layout. Generation takes place in your browser, without an account.
Questions about GS1 DataBar Expanded
- How do I add an expiry date and batch number?
- For example, (01)09521234543213(17)271231(10)LOT123 combines a GTIN, expiry on 31 December 2027 and batch LOT123. Use your own assigned GTIN and actual product data. If the barcode is too wide, consider GS1 DataBar Expanded Stacked instead of squeezing the image. Check retailer requirements and test a final-size print.
- How do I check the code before printing?
- Leave the white margins intact, keep the image in proportion and scan a sample at its final printed size with the device you intend to use.
