### 4.9.1 Scaling Example
|
||||
### 4.9.1 Scaling by X-dimension and Resolution
|
||||
|
||||
An alternative way to specify the scale which takes these details into account
|
||||
is to use the `--scalexdimdp` option, which has the format
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
--scalexdimdp=X[,R]
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
where `X` is the X-dimension (in mm by default) and `R` is the resolution (in
|
||||
dpmm, dots per mm, by default). `R` is optional, and defaults to 12 dpmm, and
|
||||
`X` may be zero, in which case it uses a symbology-specific default. The units
|
||||
may be given in inches for `X` by appending `"in"`, and in dpi (dots per inch)
|
||||
for `R` by appending `"dpi"`. For example
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
zint -d "1234" --scalexdimdp=0.013in,300dpi
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Explicit metric units may also be given by appending `"mm"` and `"dpmm"` as
|
||||
appropriate, and may be mixed with U.S. units:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
zint -d "1234" --scalexdimdp=0.33mm,300dpi
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### 4.9.2 Scaling Example
|
||||
|
||||
The GS1 General Specifications Section 5.2.6.6 'Symbol dimensions at nominal
|
||||
size' gives an example of an EAN-13 barcode using the X-dimension of 0.33mm. To
|
||||
print that example as a PNG at 12 dots per mm (dpmm), the equivalent of 300 dots
|
||||
per inch (`dpi = dpmm * 25.4`), specify a scale of 2, since `0.33 * 12 = 3.96`
|
||||
pixels, or 4 pixels rounding to the nearest pixel:
|
||||
print that example as a PNG at 12 dpmm, the approximate equivalent of 300 dpi
|
||||
(`dpi = dpmm * 25.4`), specify a scale of 2, since `0.33 * 12 = 3.96` pixels, or
|
||||
4 pixels rounding to the nearest pixel:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
zint -b EANX -d "501234567890" --compliantheight --scale=2
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This will result in output of 38.27mm x 26.08mm (WxH) at 300 dpi. The following
|
||||
table shows the scale to use (in 0.5 increments) depending on the dpmm desired,
|
||||
for a target X-dimension of 0.33mm:
|
||||
This will result in output of 37.29mm x 25.56mm (WxH) at 12 dpmm. The same
|
||||
result can be achieved using the `--scalexdimdp` option with
|
||||
|
||||
dpmm dpi scale

### 4.9.3 MaxiCode Raster Scaling

|
||||
For MaxiCode symbols, which use hexagons, the scale for raster output is

||||
X-dimension is 2 pixels.

|

|

The minimum scale is 0.2, so the minimum X-dimension is 2 pixels. However scales
|
||||
below 0.5 are not recommended and may produce symbols that are not within the
|
||||
following size ranges.
|
||||
|
||||
MaxiCode symbols have fixed size ranges of 24.82mm to 27.93mm in width, and
|
||||
23.71mm to 26.69mm in height, excluding quiet zones. The following table shows
|
||||
the scale to use depending on the dpmm desired, with dpi equivalents:

## 5.12 Verifying Symbology Availability
|
||||
## 5.12 Scaling Helpers
|
||||
|
||||
To help with scaling the output, the following three function are available:
|
||||
|
||||
```c
|
||||
float ZBarcode_Default_Xdim(int symbol_id);
|
||||
|
||||
float ZBarcode_Scale_From_XdimDp(int symbol_id, float x_dim_mm, float dpmm,
|
||||
const char *filetype) {
|
||||
|
||||
float ZBarcode_XdimDP_From_Scale(int symbol_id, float scale,
|
||||
float x_dim_mm_or_dpmm, const char *filetype);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The first `ZBarcode_Default_Xdim()` returns the default X-dimension suggested by
|
||||
Zint for symbology `symbol_id`.
|
||||
|
||||
The second `ZBarcode_Scale_From_XdimDp()` returns the scale to use to output to
|
||||
a file of type `filetype` with X-dimension `x_dim_mm` at `dpmm` dots per mm. The
|
||||
given X-dimension must be non-zero and less than or equal to 10mm, however
|
||||
`dpmm` may be zero and defaults to 12 dpmm, and `filetype` may be NULL or empty
|
||||
in which case a GIF filetype is assumed. For raster output (BMP/GIF/PCX/PNG/TIF)
|
||||
the scale is rounded to half-integer increments.
|
||||
|
||||
For example:
|
||||
|
||||
```c
|
||||
my_symbol->symbology = BARCODE_RM4SCC; /* Royal Mail 4-State Customer Code */
|
||||
my_symbol->dpmm = 600.0f / 25.4f; /* 600 dpi */
|
||||
my_symbol->scale = ZBarcode_Scale_From_XdimDp(
|
||||
my_symbol->symbology,
|
||||
ZBarcode_Default_Xdim(my_symbol->symbology),
|
||||
my_symbol->dpmm, "PNG"); /* 7.5 */
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The third function `ZBarcode_XdimDP_From_Scale()` is the "reverse" of
|
||||
`ZBarcode_Scale_From_XdimDp()`, returning the X-dimension (in mm) or the dot
|
||||
density (in dpmm) given a scale `scale`. Both `scale` and `x_dim_mm_or_dpmm`
|
||||
must be non-zero. The returned value is bound to the maximum value of dpmm
|
||||
(1000), so must be further bound to 10 on return if the X-dimension is sought.
|
||||
|
||||
Note that the X-dimension to use is application dependent, and varies not only
|
||||
due to the symbology, resolution and filetype but also due to the type of
|
||||
scanner used, the intended scanning distance, and what media ("substrates") the
|
||||
barcode appears on.

||||
