Barcode generator free plugins

Hi need some help I'm using the free plugin EAN-13 Barcode Generator by Mireca

Is there a way I can change the barcode height?  Can I select the bars and drag them smaller like i did with second barcode, or will this effect the barcode scanning?

Barcode height is part of the specification of EAN 13:

EAN-13 Specifications | International Barcodes

 

But obviously users do reduce the height and codes still scan.

great than you will try to reduce size and have client scan to check if it still works
