UPC Version E - Barcode Type¶
# UPC Version E - Barcode Type
UPC-E is a zero-compressed version of UPC-A developed for smaller packages. The code requires a 6-digit article number (digits 0-9). The check digit is calculated by Zint. EAN-2 and EAN-5 addon symbols can be added using the + character, as with UPC-A. In addition, Zint also supports Number System 1 encoding by entering a 7-digit article number starting with the digit 1.
