Generating a barcode

I am developing an application which involes generating bar codes and sending them to a mobile phone (in the UK)
Sending to the phone is ok, WML upload from a webserver to the users phone which is managed by WAP. However not sure how to generate the barcode image itself from data supplied by my client.
I am not concerned with scanning the barcode itself, just its creation.
My environment is JBoss, with a GT-X EJB running the business logic of the application - GT-X uses an abstraced javascript with its own proprietary objects exposed to the javascript interface - that would be the simplest solution for me.
Anyone done this before?
Regards, Paul.

Paul, look into the open source iText (http://itext.sourceforge.net) package. I have used it in the past for barcode generation.

    What do you mean by dynamically? When yo set up a 2D bar code field you specify which field name/value pairs you want to include, along with other parameters. But be aware that they won't work with Reader unless you Reader-enable the document with LiveCycle Reader Extensions and include the bar code usage right. It will work with Acrobat Standard/Pro.

  • How to generate barcode from text field in adobe form???

    hello everyone,
    I'm new in this forum and I hope that there are people who can answer my question.
    I use Adobe Acrobat Pro 9. I have converted a Word template to a PDF template and everything works fine.
    I would like to generate a barcode of the contents of a text field (by the users), for example the following format 0123-A123456-11.
    I have tried in various ways but it has not worked. The barcode becomes unstructured and unreadable.
    Does anyone know how to do it step by step?
    Best regards!
    Nader from Sweden

    Hi,
    You can insert dynamic barcodes into your form using LC Designer. 
    You should do a search here as dynamic barcodes has been covered by by Steve Walker in detail. For example:
    BARCODE 128 - possibility of binding 2 data fields to the barcode
    Paperforms barcodes
    Using Barcode in Acroforms
    However one thing to bear in mind is that dynamic barcodes will not work in Reader unless the form has been Reader enabled using LC Reader Extensions ES2, which is a server product. Option 4 in this summary:
    Good luck,
    Niall

  • How to generate barcode in coldfusion 10?

    Hi!
    Can someone teach or refer to any link to generate barcode in coldfusion 10?
    I did try in cf8 and it works but not in cf10. Please help

    Hi, we use jQuery. It's very low overhead. Search for jquery-barcode online.
    The code is very simple, for example this code (call it index.cfm) generates a barcode from a parameter passed to the page (URL.code) e.g. index.cfm?code=12345
    <cfparam name="URL.code" default="12345">
    <html>
    <head>
    <script type="text/javascript" src="jquery-barcode/jquery-1.3.2.min.js"></script>   
    <script type="text/javascript" src="jquery-barcode/jquery-barcode.js"></script> 
    <script language="JavaScript">
    function bc() {
      $('#bcTarget').barcode('<cfoutput>#Trim(URL.code)#</cfoutput>', 'code128', {barHeight:50, barWidth:1, showHRI:true, fontSize: 11});
    </script>
    </head>
    <body onLoad="bc();">
    <div id="bcTarget" style="font-family: arial; font-weight: bold;"></div>
    </body>
    </html>
    Using client-side code takes the pressure off the server a bit. There are CF barcode generators too, but they invariably end up using third party  things like ActiveX and/or JavaScript, so jQuery-barcode is worth a look.

  • Pls Help! Adobe reader 9.0+ generated barcodes on pre-print is problem

    hi to all,
    I have a really strange problem and would like to share with you.
    Im generating the barcodes on the pre-print event, using LiveCycle Designer 8.0.
    Everything is ok when im trying to generate 2/3/4 barcodes in my form.
    The PROBLEM is if I decide to add more than 5 barcodes in my form and try to print it.
    Then - when I decide to print the form and to fill the information in my barcodes - the Acrobat Reader is just closed.
    No error alert..just closed. When i debugged the problem I saw that generating of barcodes is starting, but if there are more than 5 barcodes,
    the adobe reader closed before all barcodes to been generating.
    I do think about no enough memory, or something like that..but have no idea really what’s that.
    Do u have any idea what’s that problem..
    thanks in advance for yr time
    Regards

    Try and print the PDF as an image.
    Also when you send this to someone else are hey able to print without an issue?

  • How to generate Barcode for Storage Bins

    Hi,
    How to generate Barcode for the all the newly created storage bins in order to get scanned with the RF devices.
    Thanks and regards,
    I.Jacob Milton

    Hello Jacob,
    We generate our barcodes with the help of the PPF action. For example, our labels have the barcodes onto them and when we finish a task that requires packing/unpacking/deconsolidation we have the PPF trigger the printing of the neccesary labels.
    I direct you to the path SCM SPRO - Supply Network Collaboration - Tools - Actions (Post Processing Framework). Here you need to set the action and namely the trigger.
    All the best,

  • Can 2D BarCode (PDF417) be generated in Reports?

  • Barcode Generator with Labview

    I am trying to create code in Labview 6.1 that will generate a barcode output. I have searched through the discussion database and through the Code Sharing database and have had no luck.....
    If someone has code or knows of a way to do this can they let me know.
    Thanks, Simon

    My understanding is that it's just a matter of using a string indicator that uses a bar code font. You wire the desired characters into the indicator, and the font handles the task of displaying those characters as bar code.
    Standard bar code fonts are available in many places; here is one site (www.barcodesinc.com) that offers a standard Code 39 implementation for free.
    Hope that's what you're after,

  • Code 128 Barcode printed from Application Express

    Hi,
    My colleague and I have written a procedure to generate Code128 Barcodes. These appear fine on the screen within Application Express 3. But when we export the file as an RTF or PDF document to our BI_Publisher server running under LINUX RedHat the Barcodes are greyed out and cannot be seen.
    Anyone any ideas on how to solve this? It is extremely irritating only to be able to offer our users the ability to print the Application Express page off rather than a proper document.
    Thanks

    Hi kcbemssr,
    I don't know weather you can see this reply, but i still want to say something about this.
    Did you used another type of code 128?
    you can try this. and here is a site i recommand you, it's all about barcode, you can get code 128

  • Mail barcode support in Crystal Reports 2008 - does it really exist?

    We are looking to add mail bar codes to our existing reports.  The cover letter of the report includes a mailing label and we would like to add a mail bar code underneath it.  I called 888-229-2276 yesterday and explained what I wanted to do.  I was instructed to download a trial version from the website and take a look at the help as this feature was added in Crystal Reports 2008.  The help didn't explain much more than right click the fieled you want to bar code and select the Bar Code option listed.  What this created was a regular bar code that looks like a UPC you would find in the grocery store.  I tried both Azalea fonts, but got the same result.
    How does one create an Intelligent Mail barcode or PostNet barcode?

    Having dealt with both PostNet and Intelligent Mail Barcodes (IMB), using CR XI R1, here are a couple of things that might shed some light:
    1.  PostNet and IMB are vastly different, so you choose which one you want to generate.  PostNet requires some calculation based on the zipcode and/or zip+5 whereas IMB requires specific information such as Mailer ID etc assigned to your company by USPS. 
    2.  You can download a PostNet font, which can be found on the web as shareware etc.  IMB font can be downloaded from USPS for free.  For more info on IMB check out [https://ribbs.usps.gov/index.cfm?page=intellmailmailpieces]
    3.  IMB is very specific to your company and as such requires a thorough understanding of the type of mail you will be sending and if it is bulk or BRM etc etc.  It would be better to consult with the USPS customer rep for your company to determine if IMB is appropriate for you.
    4.  PostNet is a breeze compared to IMB.  All you need do is determine if the barcode will be based on zip or zip+5 and delivery point codes which determines if the barcode will contain 32, 52 or 62 bars.  You then download the font from the web and off you go.  Information on how to calculate/generate PostNet barcodes is all over the internet, the key is downloading the font.
    I bet it is all clear as mud but feel free to post if you have more questions.

  • PDF: Barcode in pdf file

    Hello,
    I need to create and send a PO and Kanban card through External Send in me22n to a vendor. It should be sent through email with the PO and Kanban card printouts as pdf attachements.
    How can I get a correct barcode that could be scanned instead of the place holder ( vertical lines ) ?
    Thanks for any help...

    Yes, it is possible with new barcode font.  When the new barcode font is used, SAP generates the barcode instead of the printer making it device independent.

  • Scanning with barcodes and Acrobat 9 Pro

    We have an inhouse program that uses a barcode to send scanned papers (pdf) to a specific location on our network. There is a different barcode for everyone so that whatever they scan goes to their "queue".
    Is it possible to use Acrobat 9 Pro
    to generate a barcode and have it do as above eliminating this other program? If so, could you point me in the right direction please?
    Thank you in advance.

    Sounds like you may need to do a little testing.
