barcode

A barcode is a machine-readable code consisting of bars and spaces used to identify products or items. It is scanned to retrieve information, such as price or product details, from a database.

What are the options for integrating barcode generation and printing capabilities into a desktop application?

There are several options available for integrating barcode generation and printing capabilities into a desktop application. One option is to use a barcode generation library, such as Zebra Crossing (ZXing) or Barcode4J, to generate the barcode image. Then, you can use a printing library, like Java Print API or Adobe Acrobat SDK, to print the generated barcode. Another option is to use a third-party barcode generation and printing software development kit (SDK), such as Dynamsoft Barcode SDK or OnBarcode SDK, which provide pre-built components for barcode generation, image processing, and printing. These SDKs usually come with comprehensive documentation and sample code to help you easily integrate barcode capabilities into your desktop application.
