Can't find a barcode reader for these..

[Guest necosino]

So, I have been trying QuickMark. It can pick up the barcodes that were posted in another post here just fine. However, I'm trying to find a program that will pick up the barcodes that appear on a lot of bills and business cards that I've been getting (like this)

Any ideas?

lol.. Never mind, I tried it on the one I linked and it read it just fine.. Must be just too small on the stuff I've gotten so far...

Works fine here too. Using QuickMark 3.8 Omnia. Just use Capture mode instead of Realtime (Options menu/Use the "Send to" icon after the capture), capture in portrait format (i.e don't hold your phone like a regular camera) for this one, and don't try to fill the whole picture with the barcode (that'll only make it harder).

The "Send to" method doesn't really work for me - maybe in one out ten tries... :-(

Is there a special trick besides using portrait mode and not filling the whole picture?

Unless Quickmark manages to access the macro function of the camera directly it's kind of useless.

BTW: I am trying to scan the oldfashioned 1D barcodes...

I'm not sure exactly what you mean by the send to.. I'm assuming you mean in the normal camera application. I've taken the pic but can't get QuickMark to load it after pushing an icon that looks like the camera with an up arrow, which loads "SharePics" or something like that..
