Maybe you should post a PDF created with iText and
a PDF417 barcode so that we can see the nature of
the problem. Because now, we might not be talking
about the same issues.

You keep talking about an 'image'.
This is the most confusing about your question.
In iText, a barcode is created as a PdfTemplate object.
PdfTemplate extends PdfContentByte.
PdfContentByte allows you to create a sequence of PDF syntax.
> Is it independent of output quality?
PDF syntax looks more or less like this:
move to coordinate (X1, Y1),
draw a line to coordinate (X2, Y2),
draw a line to coordinate (X3, Y3),
draw a line to coordinate (X4, Y4),
close the path,
stroke the lines and fill the shape.
There are no pixels involved; just coordinates
in a coordinate system. There is no resolution involved.
It's just vector data.
