The Softmatic Barcode Extension is a native plugin from Berlin-based developer Softmatic GmbH that integrates directly into Adobe Illustrator. Its main job is to let you generate a vast range of linear (1D) and 2D barcode types without leaving your workspace. You don't need to switch between apps, copy-paste graphics, or worry about resolution and print quality.
The extension gives full control over the numbers printed beneath the bars. Designers can change font styles, adjust the text size, or add custom spacing to seamlessly blend the barcode into the brand's aesthetic without compromising its function.
