Barcode 2.7 beta

14 Mar 2026

This update focuses on giving you finer control over your barcode designs, from individual text elements to color workflows. We’ve also added support for more languages, making it easier to work in your preferred locale.

Smarter Text Options

Custom text elements are now more flexible. You can set the vertical alignment, which is especially handy when working with multi-line text blocks. Need a specific color for a text? That’s now possible too.

For batch processing, we’ve made a useful improvement: you can now define spot colors for both the barcode and custom texts directly from your data columns. It’s a small change that can save time when handling multiple variations.

More Accurate Color Control

We’ve added a new “Color mode” option that lets you choose between working in CMYK or RGB. This setting affects both the on-screen preview and the final output, helping you maintain a more consistent and predictable workflow. What you see really is closer to what you’ll get.

Your Language, Included

This release includes translations for many of the most widely used languages. If yours isn’t listed, you’re welcome to add it yourself — we appreciate the community contributions.
