Tool to decrypt/encrypt with code 128. Code 128 is a normalized barcode system which is described in EAN-128.

How to encrypt using Barcode 128 cipher?

Encryption uses the EAN-128 barcode coding standard which includes 3 encoding tables : the 128A, 128B and 128C codes.

The barcode therefore includes alternate black and white lines of variable width (between 1 and 4).

The code starts with Start and ends with End, between are the characters to encrypt each represented by 6 bars (3 blacsk and 3 whites).

If you want to code DCODE with 128B.

You have to code Start, D, C, O, D, E, End

211214,112313,131321,133121,112313,132113,2331112

Normally the code 128 includes a checksum (modulo 103), here it is ignored.

Decryption requires to perform a simple reading of the bar according to EAN-128 standard.

Many app for smartphones facilitate this work.

If you have the message 2112141123131313211331211123131321132331112

You can check the first 6 digits (corresponding to the first 3 black bars and 3 white bars), here 211214 that stands for 128B Code. Then split each 6 characters, befor translating them.

The message contained in the bar code is dCode.
