About data matrix codes

A Data Matrix code is a two-dimensional matrix barcode consisting of black and white "cells" arranged in either rectangular pattern. The length of the encoded data depends on the number of cells in the matrix. Error correction codes are often used to increase reliability.



Secure data matrix barcodes

The Dynamic Barcode for Illustrator® plug-in generates data matrix barcodes as real vector graphics (no bitmap images) and they are protected from unwanted edits or changes. The barcodes can only be modified in the plug-in palette.
