Setting up ActiveBarcode for IIS and ASP.NET & ASP
Using ActiveBarcode to display barcodes on Internet sites with IIS and ASP.NET is very simple. A standard installation of IIS and ASP.NET is usually sufficient. If you have not installed ASP.NET yet, do this first. You can install ASP by using a server role. This role is located at Web Server (IIS) -> Web Server -> Application Development -> ASP.NET [..]
Additional to IIS and ASPX you need the barcode object. If you have installed ActiveBarcode, the barcode object is already installed. The Internet-license must be installed, too. You received instructions on this with your purchase. The trial version does not require a license.
To use the ASPX demo, copy the contents of the folder c:\program files (x86)\activebarcode\aspx\ to a subfolder of the inetpub folder. E.g.: c:\inetpub\wwwroot\aspx\
Now open open the URL http://localhost/aspx/.
An example page will open that shows and explains how to create barcodes dynamically.
'barcodeimage.aspx' is found in c:\program files (x86)\activebarcode\aspx and must be copied to a folder that is covered by IIS. (E.g. \inetpub\wwwroot\aspx-activebarcode-demo\)
In your html pages you use 'barcodeimage.aspx' with the img tag:

How to use the barcode object with ASPX
The easiest way to create barcodes dynamically is to use 'barcodeimage.aspx'. It's a wrapper for the barcode object so that you can create barcodes and use them as images in any html page using the HTML img tag.'barcodeimage.aspx' is found in c:\program files (x86)\activebarcode\aspx and must be copied to a folder that is covered by IIS. (E.g. \inetpub\wwwroot\aspx-activebarcode-demo\)
In your html pages you use 'barcodeimage.aspx' with the img tag:
<img src="barcodeimage.aspx">
A barcode with default values will be shown:
Example with parameters to create the specifc barcode shown below:
<img src="barcodeimage.aspx?code=CODE39EXTENDED& text=Hello%20World!&showtext=1&rotate=90& backcolor=002288&forecolor=12345&width=250& height=430&borderwidth=50&borderheight=25">
