I am new to the ZXing environment and I have previously used it only once for QR codes for android... My question is:

Can ZXing decode the following barcode variants:

(1) UPC GS1-12 (2) EAN GS1-13 (3) RSS GS1 Databar (4)QR-GS1 Codes

Can anyone direct me proper resources or can throw their opinions on this? THnks in advance :))

    You will be better served reading [the project documentation](http://code.google.com/p/zxing/) and asking follow-up questions on [the ZXing Google Group](http://groups.google.com/group/zxing). – CommonsWare Aug 08 '13 at 20:39
  • yes I went through the documentation, it mentions the support for UPC, EAN, RSS and QR but I am specifically looking for feedback based on these formats .... – uLYsseus Aug 08 '13 at 20:42
  • And when you asked your questions on the ZXing Google Group, what did they tell you? – CommonsWare Aug 08 '13 at 20:46
  • Its still awaiting an approval to get posted there.... – uLYsseus Aug 08 '13 at 20:47
  • Ah, OK. You might be able to get help here, but on deep-in-the-weeds questions like this, it's usually better to go to the project itself where possible. – CommonsWare Aug 08 '13 at 20:49
  • thnks :)), just trying my luck here :)) – uLYsseus Aug 08 '13 at 20:51

(Copied from the discussion group -- follow up there, or here)

These are not new formats. These are just UPC, EAN, QR code and RSS (-14 probably). GS1 is a standards group that is trying to define something new about what is encoded in the barcodes. In the case of UPC/EAN I don't even think that's new. There is no special handling of GS1 contents, but the contents are decoded just fine.
