Answer 2

Hi,

to send you code to generate a barcode is only possible, if you can tell us, what barcode type you want to generate.

Each barcode has individual start and end characters and individually generated check digits. And...there are some barcodes that only allow special characters which can be defined in subsets.

So, which barcode do you want to generate?

2of5industrial, 2of5interleaved, Code25, Code128, EAN13, EAN14, EAN128, ITF14, SCC14, DUN14, or, or, or... ?

In my opinion, the easiest way is to install a barcode font, there are many free outhere or really inexpensive.

Answer 5

Hi,

for Code 39 see the link tom mentioned, its just a truetype fonts you can use in your reports.

For code 128 (and other) you may need to add a check digit, for example see here or search the foxite forum. http://www.mecsw.com/info/appnote/app_001.html

Tip

If you use special printers like epsontm series or zebra they may have implemented barcode fonts. Printing with them may be faster but you have to install the driver (to get access to the fonts) on each pc where you want to use/design the reports.
