Hi, I'm starting a new project in a week or two. The web app is going to be a cataloging app which also generates a barcode for indexing physical items. Does anyone have any experience and/or any recommendation on free/paid libraries? The type of barcode does not matter as long as it's something that's universal. The barcode can be generated to an image, which will be placed on a PDF and printed. Thanks so much, Luke
A google search for "generate barcode php" brings up many viable options. I thought this library was pretty nice and easy to use and it even links to a guide on how to implement it https://github.com/davidscotttufts/php-barcode It seems to be free to use. Another one that seems popular is this one: http://www.barcodephp.com/ but you may need a $60 license.
