2D barcodes

edited April 2010 in General
Hello all,

I am in need of printing 2D Datamatrix code Barcodes.

I found the company Psoft.Sk that has a Library that (maybe) prints this
kind of barcode and has a component for Report Builder, the problem is
I've already sent some emails and a message thru their own website a
week ago and I have still no answer from them (the demo lib doesn't
compile with D6).

Does anyone know of any other company that has 2D barcodes? (already
with a Rb component ready would be very nice)

Using D6 with RB 10.06 Enterprise.

Thanks
Andrew

    Hi Andrew,

    We do not have any experience with the PSoft component, however if you can
    find a Delphi component that produces a Datamatrix barcode as an image
    (ideally a Metafile), it would be fairly simple to place the generated image
    on a report as a TppImage at runtime. This method is a common practice of
    many of our customers when special or advanced items need to be displayed on
    a report.

    Hi Nico,

    Yes thanks, I know. I was really hoping someone would come up with a
    company that was already working with him/her. I found a reasonable
    number of companies that produce 2D barcodes but few of them work with
    Delphi and based on my previous experience, if here in the ng people say
    "that company is ok" or not, it's worth the piece of advice. :-)

    Thanks
    Andrew
