Transmitting food and supplements barcodes

mike

How many digits is the correct barcodes needed to be transmitted to Cronometer? In other words, reading the barcodes off the product labels, is it required to transmit the leading digit which is followed by a space, and the trailing digit which follows a space ?
Thanks

Hi Mike. We need all the digits to recognize the barcode, including the first one that is sometimes smaller at the bottom left of the barcode - unless the lead digits are zeroes. We do not count zeroes at the beginning of a barcode.
