Barcode Element
The Barcode element provides functionality for displaying barcode images based on a supplied data string. AstraDoc currently supports 11 different barcode formats (see below for a table containing all supported formats).
Certain barcodes require the supplied data string either conform to a specific series or contain a data string that passes a checksum calculation. Barcodes that fail these requirements will not render within the document.
