PDF417 Bar Code Fonts is an application that prints PDF417 barcode symbols using TrueType fonts.While other PDF417 products generate bitmap output, PDF417 Bar Code Fonts is the first and only product to generate two-dimensional barcodes using standard font technology. This is significant because a user can print PDF417 barcodes from within any Microsoft Windows application, not just proprietary labeling applications.PDF417 Bar Code Fonts also produces bitmap (BMP) files as output for those who need graphics. Sample codes illustrate how to wire PDF417 Bar Code Fonts into Windows applications such as databases, spreadsheets, and custom applications written with tools such as Microsoft Visual Basic, C/C++, and so on.Fonts are the ideal way to generate barcodes, both one and two dimensional. Fonts are fast and optimized to generate output quickly, unlike other graphic file formats. Fonts can also be accessed from within common applications, such as word processors, and integrated into custom projects.PDF417 Bar Code Fonts generated barcodes are very compact and dense symbols that can include over 1100 bytes of data. This is much more than can be encoded using standard one-dimensional barcodes such as Code 39, UPC, or Code 128. PDF417, developed by Symbol Technologies, is the most popular two-dimensional barcode and is being widely used around the world in a number of different industries.Click the Resources tab above for related articles and other information on this topic.Manufacturer: Azalea Software, Inc.
