Aztec Code Generator
Create Code 128, EAN, UPC, Code 39, Data Matrix and other barcodes directly in your browser. Customize sizing, colors, and margins, then export vector SVG or PNG.
Matrix code with square target center. Requires no quiet zone border. (All ASCII and binary data)
Standard mode preserves exact GS1/ISO barcode symbology geometry, quiet zones, and height ratios. Recommended for retail packaging and commercial labels.
2D Matrix Code for Railway & Transit Ticketing
Bulls-Eye Central Target Symbology & Zero Quiet Zone Geometry
Aztec Code is the primary barcode standard used by international railway operators (IATA / UIC 918-3) and airlines for mobile boarding passes.
Because its finder pattern is located dead-center, it can be scanned easily even when printed right up to the edge of paper tickets.
What Can You Use This Tool For?
Real-world problems solved and intended workflows for this tool.
Mobile Electronic Transit & Transportation Ticketing
Aztec Code is widely used in transport and railway e-ticketing formats (such as UIC 918-3) because its central bulls-eye finder pattern allows reliable scanning on mobile smartphone displays even with low screen brightness or screen glare.
Space-Constrained Document & Specimen Labeling
Unlike QR codes that require a mandatory quiet zone margin around all four sides, Aztec Code requires no quiet zone border, allowing high-density data to be printed right up to the edges of compact wristbands or clinical tags.
High-Density Data Encoding with Reed-Solomon Redundancy
Encodes large alphanumeric payloads or binary tokens with user-configurable error correction levels so codes remain readable even if ticket corners are creased or partially torn.
Clear Technical Distinction from 1D Retail Barcodes
Standard 1D retail linear barcodes (UPC-A, EAN-13) only hold 12–13 numbers for supermarket checkout registers. Aztec is a 2D matrix symbology designed for optical imaging scanners, supporting hundreds of characters in a compact square footprint.
How It Works in 3 Simple Steps
Input Ticket Data
Type booking code or payload string.
Set Module Scale
Configure pixel scale for resolution.
Download Vector SVG
Export print-ready SVG or PNG.
- Aztec codes require 2D camera-based or optical area-imager scanners; they cannot be read by legacy 1D linear laser checkout scanners.
- This tool generates standards-compliant Aztec matrix symbology graphics. Commercial transport operators, airlines, and ticketing networks require integration with their proprietary encrypted data schemas and validation systems.
