ITBarCodeBase.BarWidthReduction

Double BarWidthReduction

Sets/Gets the reduction of the bar widths.

The bar width is reduced by the given value in the current unit.
This property is useful when printing on ink jet printers: On such printers the bars appear wider than specified because the ink spreads a little bit. You can compensate this effect by setting a bar-width reduction (also called “Pixel Shaving”). You have to play around to find suitable settings because this effect depends on the printer, on the used paper, and on the ink.
Default Value: 0 (no reduction)
Value Range: 0 means always “No Reduction”, whereas the upper range depends on the unit.

If the unit is set to percent, then the upper range is 100[%]. For all other units the upper limit is the current module width.
