Coming soon
Scan 1D barcodes from images or camera.
Barcode Scanner isn't available in browser mode — yet.
1D barcode decoding needs the ZXing engine (large WASM). QR codes are readable today with our QR Code Reader.

Barcode Scanner is on the roadmap and not working yet, and this page says so instead of leaving you with a dead button. Why it is not live yet: 1D barcode decoding needs the ZXing engine (large WASM). Everything else on this site runs in your browser today; the parts marked coming soon need capability a browser tab does not have.
Useful when the job is answering a question about a file rather than converting it and you would rather not install software, join a queue or hand the file to a stranger.
How to use Barcode Scanner in 3 steps
- This tool is marked coming soon, so nothing here will convert or process a file — read the reason stated above before you spend time on it.
- Use the closest tool that does work today: it takes JPG, JPEG, PNG and 9 more, so look for a live tool in Advanced Tools.
- Bring the result back here for the rest of the job — merging, compressing, protecting or signing a finished file all work today.

- Accepts JPG, JPEG, PNG and 9 more in one go
- Runs in your browser — the file is never uploaded
- Free to use, with no signup and no account

Barcode Scanner: questions
- Do I need to pay or register?
- No. Every tool on this site is free, with no account, no email and nothing to install.
- Which file types does Barcode Scanner accept?
- The drop area takes JPG, JPEG, PNG and 9 more. Files are read from your device in the browser, so the format has to be one a browser can decode — that is why the accepted list on this page is finite and honest rather than "everything".
- Can I process several files at once?
- Yes, up to 50 files in a batch, each no larger than 100 MB. Results come back together instead of one save dialog per file.
- Is it safe to use for a document with personal details in it?
- That is the design goal: the document stays on your device, so a statement, a contract or an ID photo is never transmitted for processing. Nothing here needs an internet connection once the page has loaded, apart from engines that fetch their own model data.
