How to Install Barcode Generator for Java
- Install Java with JDK 4.0 and above version and make sure the Java executables are included in the search path.
- Download the Java Barcode Generation Package for the purpose type with linear, QR Code, PDF 417 or Data Matrix and extract the file.
- Copy .jar file in the Java Barcode Generation package into the Java class path and the barcode library is enabled here for Java development.
- Then the Java Barcode Generator is installed and valid for implementation to draw barcode images.
How to Create and Print Barcode in Java App
Generate Barcodes in Java Class
//Build a Java barcode object for a specific barcode type
Code39 barcode = new Code39();
//Encode data for Code 39 barcode image text in Java Class
barcode.setData("BARCODE-JAVA");
//Adjust Code 39 size with barcode unit of measure
barcode.setUom("PIXEL");
//Set Code 39 image resolution for Java
barcode.setResolution("88");
//Draw Code 39 images in the file with fixed image format
barcode.drawBarcode(".../java-code 39.jpeg");
Create Barcodes into EPS
//Build a Java barcode object for a specific barcode type
Code39 barcode = new Code39();
//Encode data for Code 39 barcode image text in Java Class
barcode.setData("BARCODE-JAVA");
//Set Code 39 barcode background color using Java
barcode.setbackgroundColor("RED");
//Fix the bar alignment for Code 39 barcode images in Java
barcode.setbarAlignment("LEFT");
//Draw Code 39 images in the file with fixed image format - eps
barcode.drawBarcode(".../java-code 39.eps");
Encode Code 39 Barcode Images in HTML or JSP pages
- Copy the Java Barcode Package with files in it into Apache Tomcat.
- Open Apache Tomcat and go to http://YourDomain:Port/barcode/barcode?DATA=JAVA BARCODE&TYPE=CODE39
- Insert a image tag with img into the above page, like <http://YourDomain:Port/barcode/barcode?DATA= JAVA BARCODE&TYPE=CODE39">
