Help!!! EAN 13 - what’s a check?

[Nile(Legacy member)]

I've been asked to make a barcode and it won't read. Manufacturer has said it's an EON 13 barcode.

Here's what they've sent me.

933007000002 - check 2

What should I type in?

How do I put in the "-check 2"

I believe that it means that the check digit is 2. Go to http://www.morovia.com/font/font-demo.asp, select EAN-13 from the barcode type and copy/paste the number in. The barcode shows a checkdigit 2.

If you are using Morovia software you do not need to type 2. The software will calculate the check digit for you.
