Barcode is a professional barcode generator for Mac and Windows from Appsforlife, the team behind the Boxshot packaging tools. Unlike simple code generators, it focuses on how the barcode looks as well as what it encodes: you control colours, fonts, sizes and margins, watch a live preview as you work, and export the finished code for print or drag it into Adobe Illustrator.

Key Features

  • Supports the main symbologies, including UPC, EAN, ISBN, Code 128, Code 39, GS1, DataMatrix, PDF417, Aztec and QR codes
  • Live preview with control over colours, fonts, bar widths, sizes and margins, including spot colours
  • Bulk and batch generation from a list of codes, plus command line processing for scripts
  • Drag and drop integration with Adobe Illustrator instead of a plugin dependency
  • Custom label creation for inventory and asset tracking, with printing from the app

How to Download

  1. Make sure your Mac runs a recent version of macOS before installing.
  2. Download from the official site, where Appsforlife offers a free demo version to try first.
  3. Open the downloaded DMG, drag Barcode into your Applications folder, and activate it with your licence if you buy it.

System Requirements

Barcode runs on Macs with a recent version of macOS, on both Apple silicon and Intel machines. It is a design tool rather than a heavy application, so any Mac that handles normal graphics work will run it comfortably.

FAQs

Can I try Barcode before buying?

Yes. The official site offers a free demo so you can test the workflow and exports before paying. This post does not offer any modified or unlocked version of the software.

Which barcode types does it support?

All the common retail and industrial types are covered, from UPC and EAN to ISBN, Code 128, DataMatrix and QR codes, so most packaging and labelling jobs are handled.
