I am starting my own publishing company and am putting together a book. I know I need both UPC and ISBN numbers, but they seem to be from different places and I was wondering how they fit together? Can I buy the UPC and the ISBN seperately and will that be okay? I thought the UPC was a computer translation of the ISBN|||Good question! The link below should help ya out!|||You purchase ISBN numbers and barcode graphic seperately from your UPC number and its barcode graphic.
ISBNs are issued by the Bowker Agency at www.ISBN.org.
UPC numbers are issued by GS1 and by more reasonably priced resellers like Simply Barcodes at www.UPCcode.net.
Hope this helps.
