AustraliaPost, Planet, Postnet barcodes generation

AustraliaPost, Planet, Postnet barcodes generation is changed.

AustralianPost.AustralianPostShortBarHeight by default is set to zero and calculated by default as 0.26 from BarHeight.

//AustraliaPost barcode generation
BarcodeGenerator gen = new BarcodeGenerator(EncodeTypes.AustraliaPost, "6212345678AP");
gen.Parameters.Barcode.AustralianPost.AustralianPostEncodingTable = CustomerInformationInterpretingType.CTable;
gen.Parameters.Barcode.BarHeight.Pixels = 100;

// If short bar is not specified, it is scaled to 0.26 * BarHeight
gen.Parameters.Barcode.AustralianPost.AustralianPostShortBarHeight.Pixels = 10;
gen.Parameters.Barcode.Padding.Left.Pixels = 10;
gen.Parameters.Barcode.Padding.Top.Pixels = 10;
gen.Parameters.Barcode.Padding.Right.Pixels = 10;
gen.Parameters.Barcode.Padding.Bottom.Pixels = 10;
gen.Save("AustraliaPost.png", BarCodeImageFormat.Png);

Postal.PostalShortBarHeight by default is set to zero and calculated by default as 0.5 from BarHeight.

//Planet, Postnet barcodes generation
BarcodeGenerator gen = new BarcodeGenerator(EncodeTypes.Postnet, "5552357000");
gen.Parameters.Barcode.BarHeight.Pixels = 100;

// If short bar is not specified, it is scaled to 0.5 * BarHeight
gen.Parameters.Barcode.Postal.PostalShortBarHeight.Pixels = 40;

gen.Parameters.Barcode.CodeTextParameters.Location = CodeLocation.None;
gen.Parameters.Barcode.Padding.Left.Pixels = 10;
gen.Parameters.Barcode.Padding.Top.Pixels = 10;
gen.Parameters.Barcode.Padding.Right.Pixels = 10;
gen.Parameters.Barcode.Padding.Bottom.Pixels = 10;

PZN7 and PZN8 barcodes generation

PZN8 and PZN7 encoding and decoding are supported:

To encode PZN7 it is needed to provide 6 digits or less to CodeText, like “123456”.
To encode PZN8 it is needed to provide 7 digits or more to CodeText, like “1234567”.
Provided last checksum digit is ignored and generated by the barcode engine.

//encode and decode PZN7
using (BarcodeGenerator gen = new BarcodeGenerator(EncodeTypes.PZN, "123456"))
using (BarCodeReader reader = new BarCodeReader(gen.GenerateBarCodeImage(), DecodeType.PZN))
    foreach (BarCodeResult result in reader.ReadBarCodes())
        Console.WriteLine(result.CodeTypeName + ":" + result.CodeText);

//encode and decode PZN8
using (BarcodeGenerator gen = new BarcodeGenerator(EncodeTypes.PZN, "1234567"))
using (BarCodeReader reader = new BarCodeReader(gen.GenerateBarCodeImage(), DecodeType.PZN))
    foreach (BarCodeResult result in reader.ReadBarCodes())
        Console.WriteLine(result.CodeTypeName + ":" + result.CodeText);
