v8.3.x 中的更新

v8.3.3

Updated Jun 4, 2019

  • 1-D:
    • Fix for false positive EAN-13 Supplemental barcodes (when a UPC-E barcode is adjacent to an EAN- 13 barcode and also at the edge of an image).
    • Improvements to the handling of EAN13 Supplemental barcodes.
    • Fix for some Codabar false positive readings.
    • Resolved issue with incorrect coordinates of Codabar barcodes.
    • Improvements have been made to Code 93 recognition.
    • False positive results for Code 25 bar codes in some documents containing tables with borders have been fixed.
    • Fixed small memory leak when detecting Code 25 barcodes.
  • QR-Code:
    • Auto detection of UTF-8, Kanji, Big5 and GBK improved for Qr Codes with the default for QRCodeByteMode changed from 1 to 2 to better conform with the ISO specification for QRCode. Big5 and GBK characters will only be interpreted when QRCodeByteMode is set to the correct value.
    • Fix for recognition of Kanji characters using the Kanji byte compaction scheme and addition of the QRCodeByteMode property to handle the ambiguity inherent in the QRCode specification and optional support for the Big5 and Gbk character sets through the QRCodeByteMode property.
    • Improvement to recognition of black and white skewed QrCodes.
  • PDF-417:
    • The wide bars in guard patterns can now be processed even when they are split.
    • Left hand guard patterns with smaller than normal wide bars can now be processed.
    • Error correction has been improved where the data includes padding code words.
    • Barcodes with an extra vertical bar before the final large bar can now be decoded using default settings.
    • The calculation of the number of columns has been improved.
    • Fixed bug that could make recognition of some PDF417 barcodes inconsistent.
  • Datamatrix:
    • The general speed of Data Matrix recognition has been improved.
    • Support for dot pattern Data Matrix has been improved with the addition of the new property called
    • DotDataMatrixSupport.
    • The handling of the Datamatrix upper shift character has been fixed.
  • Databar:
    • If the DataBarOptions mask includes the value 256 then the full Databar type for the bar code is returned by GetBarStringType.
  • General:
    • Fix for random barcode coordinates when MultipleRead is not enabled.
    • A new property called EdgeThreshold has been added. This improves performance of large color images, especially for DataMatrix recognition. To retain 100% compatibility with previous versions this property should be set to 0.
    • Performance improvement for images with certain types of repeated pattern.
    • Fixed potential memory overrun when the ReportUnreadBarcodes mask contains 1.
    • Added new advanced property called Show2DCornersInResults.
