  | | | LiveCycle, barcodes and iText question | LiveCycle, barcodes and iText question 2007-06-21 - By Jim Cornmell
Back Hi All,
Within Adobe LifeCycle you can create a form which contains some barcodes, e.g. Code 39. I can use iText to fill in this form giving a value to all the fields including the barcode field. Unfortunately the barcode just appears as the text I've set it to, not a barcode. I have tried several types of barcode and I have several barcode fonts installed on my machine. But none of this makes any difference.
I know I can use the barcode functionality in iText but it seems a neater solution to have my users design the form (which may not contain barcodes) and then simply replace the field as and when required.
Any suggestions welcome.
Jim
