For what it is worth, here is a code to create barcodes with ScriptMaster. It uses the barbecue library which can be downloaded here: http://barbecue.sourceforge.net/

Add the library to your jar list and there you go!

import java.io.File;



import net.sourceforge.barbecue.Barcode;

import net.sourceforge.barbecue.BarcodeFactory;

import net.sourceforge.barbecue.BarcodeImageHandler;



Barcode barcode = BarcodeFactory.createInt2of5(dataString);



//Uncomment those lines to save the barcode as a png

//File f = new File(destPath);

//BarcodeImageHandler.savePNG(barcode, f);



//Uncomment the following line to return the barcode as an image to FileMaker

BarcodeImageHandler.getImage(barcode);

Thanks for posting, Andries! Do you mind if I add that to the ScriptMaster.fp7 file?

Of course not -)

But this library actually allows you to create all kind of barcodes, maybe it is better to include the code39 barcode in the scriptmaster module as this is considered as the most standard barcode.

A bit of extension to the above which gives more control of size and resolution

//

//



import net.sourceforge.barbecue.*

import java.awt.*

import java.awt.image.*





// change this to suit

font = new Font( "Arial" , Font.BOLD , 18)

barcode = BarcodeFactory.createCode39(barcode, true)

gw = barcode.getWidth()

// change this to suit if you want higher, default 50

//barcode.setBarHeight(70)

// this sets DPI

barcode.setResolution(200)

barcode.setFont(font)

gh = barcode.getHeight()

// change this if you want a coloured background

//image = new BufferedImage(t, s, BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_RGB)

image = new BufferedImage(gw, gh, BufferedImage.TYPE_BYTE_GRAY)

Graphics2D g2 = image.getGraphics()

// default is black so draw a white box first

// change type to INT_RGB if you want  a coloured background

g2.setColor(Color.white)

g2.fillRect(0,0,gw,gh)

barcode.draw(g2, 5, 0)

return image

What I am using now is this BIRT QR Code barcode generator. It's good. Share with you all.

Tanks for the code, useful. and I like to use this simple code in this online linear barcoding site.

here i'd like to share some codes with you to help you create EAN-8 in project.

 

Dim reImage As REImage = REFile.OpenImageFile("c:/Sample.png", New PNGDecoder())
Dim barcode As New Linear()
'create a barcode
barcode.Type = BarcodeType.EAN8
'select barcode type
barcode.Data = "7777777"
'Enter a 7-digit data string
barcode.X = 1F
'set bar width
barcode.Y = 60F
'set bar height
barcode.Resolution = 96
'set resolution
barcode.Rotate = Rotate.Rotate0
'set rotate
barcode.DrawBarcode(reImage, 0, 0)
'draw barcode on REImage with location x and y
REFile.SaveImageFile(reImage, "c:/ean8.png", New PNGEncoder())

Does your barcode generator support java qr code generation, this guide says you can adjust many QR Code properties like size, etc. I'd like to have a try if your program can do that.

Hi,

Barcode maker or generator is used to design professional barcode on Mac. This is basically used for business users which create number of colorful barcode in own style. This is used to generate and print barcode levels, tags on your Mac without having any technical knowledge. So use Barcode maker for Mac which is the bedst software to create or generate barcode labels.
