Difference Between 1D and 2D Licenses
Difference Between 1D and 2D Licenses
This is relevant for bar code software only: The license keys are differentiated according to the supported set of bar code symbologies.
1D License
This license generates and prints all one-dimensional bar code symbologies (like Code 39, Code 128, UPC, 2/5...) and all linear (non stacked) versions of the EAN/UCC RSS symbology.
2D License
This license generates and prints all barcodes. In addition to linear barcodes it includes all 2D barcodes and multi-row bar code symbologies (like PDF417, MaxiCode, DataMatrix, QR-Code, GS1 DataBar and EAN/UCC RSS Composite).
From now on, only 2D licenses will be issued. A 2D license includes automatically all 1D bar codes.
