Hi All,

Probably not the right for forum to post on, but just wondering if anyone has used AppGameKit to create Barcodes.

The QR Code functionality is already provided, but for "backwards compatibility" I also require a barcode to be printed.

Not sure if anyone had created a PlugIn / Module for AppGameKit to simply convert the data string to the Barcode image - can't find anything.

I don't Imagine its very hard. I think its much harder to read a barcode then to make one. make a list with upca codes.
"0001101", // 0 "0011001", // 1 "0010011", // 2 "0111101", // 3 "0100011", // 4 "0110001", // 5 "0101111", // 6 "0111011", // 7"0110111", // 8 "0001011" // 9 search numbers in your barcode against the numbers in the list, if found iterate through each digit in the list and draw a box representing the digits in the list item. You'll have the add the standard formatting at the beginning or end depending on your needs.

Hey Smerf,

Looking ( trawling ) through some sites I came across a "128 Barcode" True Type Font..

Seems it'll do the job!!
