The IATA (International Air Transport Association) 2 of 5 barcode is a self-checking, numeric 1D barcode that is commonly used by the airline industry. This barcode is a variation of Industry 2 of 5 and employs a checksum for error detection.
The following example barcode encodes the information 1234
as a IATA 2 of 5 barcode:
Since IATA 2 of 5 requires a checksum, Barcode Xpress will calculate and write the checksum automatically. By default, the checksum will not be returned in the value when reading IATA 2 of 5. You must set the AppendCheckSum property to true in order to have the checksum character returned as part of the barcode value.

Since IATA 2 of 5 requires a checksum, Barcode Xpress for Java will calculate and write the checksum automatically.
Since IATA 2 of 5 requires a checksum, Barcode Xpress for Linux will calculate and write the checksum automatically. By default, the checksum will not be returned in the value when reading IATA 2 of 5. You must set the AppendCheckSum property to true in order to have the checksum character returned as part of the barcode value.
IATA 2 of 5 barcodes are a variation of Industry 2 of 5 barcodes. This barcode is also called "Standard 2 of 5" barcode.
Code 2 of 5 barcodes use the same symbology, so Industry 2 of 5, IATA 2 of 5, Interleaved 2 of 5, Inverted 2 of 5, DataLogic 2 of 5, Matrix 2 of 5, and BCD Matrix are all very similar.
