Issn barcode = new Issn("977-1234-56700");
barcode.Draw(pngFilePath, 300, ImageFormat.Png);        
Dim barcode As Issn = New Issn("977-1234-56700")
barcode.Draw(pngFilePath, 300, ImageFormat.Png)

ISSN Supplement 2

The two-digit supplement barcode (IssnSupplement2) adds a two-digit barcode after the main ISSN (Issn) barcode.

IssnSupplement2 barcode = new IssnSupplement2("977-1234-56700","12");
barcode.Draw(pngFilePath, 300, ImageFormat.Png);        
Dim barcode As IssnSupplement2 = New IssnSupplement2("977-1234-56700","12")
barcode.Draw(pngFilePath, 300, ImageFormat.Png)
