PDF417 Barcodes

KCCoder

Hi, I'm new to FastReports barcoding. I was wondering if anyone had a small snippet or example I could use to create a PDF417 barcode. Anything would be very much appreciated.

Thanks

I created PDF417 barcode in C# with this tool. Here is the sample code:

using System;
   using System.Collections.Generic;
   using System.Text;
   using OnBarcode.Barcode;
   using System.Drawing.Imaging;
   using System.Drawing;


   PDF417 pdf417 = new PDF417();

   // Barcode data to encode
   pdf417.Data = "OnBarcode";
   // PDF-417 data mode
   pdf417.DataMode = PDF417DataMode.Text;
   // PDF-417 rows & columns
   pdf417.RowCount = 5;
   pdf417.ColumnCount = 5;

   /*
   * Barcode Image Related Settings
   */
   // Unit of meature for all size related setting in the library. 
   pdf417.UOM = UnitOfMeasure.PIXEL;
   // Bar module width (X), default is 3 pixel;
   pdf417.X = 2;
   // Bar module width vs height
   pdf417.XtoYRatio = 0.3333333f;
   // Barcode image left, right, top, bottom margins. Defaults are 0.
   pdf417.LeftMargin = 0;
   pdf417.RightMargin = 0;
   pdf417.TopMargin = 0;
   pdf417.BottomMargin = 0;
   // Image resolution in dpi, default is 72 dpi.
   pdf417.Resolution = 72;
   // Created barcode orientation. 
   //4 options are: facing left, facing right, facing bottom, and facing top
   pdf417.Rotate = Rotate.Rotate0;

   // Generate PDF-417 and encode barcode to gif format
   pdf417.ImageFormat = System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Gif;
   pdf417.drawBarcode("C:\\pdf417.gif");
   
   /*
   You can also call other drawing methods to generate barcodes
             
   public void drawBarcode(Graphics graphics);
    
   public void drawBarcode(string filename);
    
   public Bitmap drawBarcode();
    
   public void drawBarcode(Stream stream);
             
   */

I don't know what platform you are generating barcodes on. Source about NET. and C# are provided above. I want to add PDF-417 in Crystal Report for WinForms with VB.NET, you may follow the detailed tutorial and try. Good luck!
