how can i create a self suffcient page with barcode?

[Elhanan]

hi..

i'm trying to think of a way for a web page to contain barcode and
still be archvied.

i cannot use the usuall servlet/activex server side solutions becouse
this page needs to be sent outside the company, so i may need to
install something on the client,

i thought of something like svg code embedded inside html, but that
would be very complex and i will need to install svg viewer in each
client.

is there a way to use javascript functions?

are there freeware barcode fonts?

Elhanan,

If you use barcode fonts, they will have to be installed/downloaded on
the client as well.

The best solution, in fact, is to use an activex, where barcodes are
created on the server as images (gif) and sent to the client as such.
There is no need to install anything on the client.

Please take a look at BarCodeWiz Barcode ActiveX Control. The demo
comes with example scripts for use in ASP:

You need to get the barcode's font.
Look on internet you can buy it relatively cheap (as I recall under $50).

Using ASP.NET GDI make a image and output it to the browser.

PS: I would look ready available code on codeproject.com

activxe/servrlet was my first idea, however the html document are
needed to be archived and maybe send outside the company, so no contact
to the server generating barcode.

Use Barcode ASP.NET Controls is the best choice.

There are a online demo page here:
