Barcode Internet component

On your own server

The ActiveBarcode Internet component for ASP.NET, ASP and PHP

The ActiveBarcode Internet component for ASP.NET, ASP and PHPUse ActiveBarcode to serve barcodes as images via IIS, Apache2 or directly with the ActiveBarcode Service on your Windows server. On the client side no software installation or modifications are required.

Use barcodeimage with ASP, ASPX or PHP as a wrapper for the barcode object. This makes it very easy to create barcodes:

Use barcodeimage inside the SRC-Attribute of an IMG tag to serve a barcode as an image to the client. The sourcecode of barcodeimage is provided and can be used everywhere. You are allowed to make modifications if needed.

If you need to serve barcodes in a high volume, high performance and low latency environment, we offer the ActiveBarcode Service that you can also run on your own Windows server. This service does not require IIS or apache or any ASPX, ASP or PHP. It's the high performance stand alone solution for your server.

The ActiveBarcode API is also available as a REST API service that you can subscribe on a monthly basis. No software installation, update and maintenance is required if you choose to consume the ActiveBarcode REST API.
