About the PDF417 Encoder
Implementing PDF417 as a font requires both the encoder
and the font. The purpose of the encoder is to convert the data-to-encode
into proper bar and space patterns formatted to IDAutomation's PDF417
barcode font. It is necessary to use the encoder because of the complexity
of the symbology.
After the
application is installed, it may be accessed by an icon in
the Program group. When the application opens, enter the barcode data
in the "data to encode in barcode" field.
To paste into other Windows applications, select the "Copy to
Clipboard" option and press the "Print / Generate PDF417 Code"
button. Several lines of numbers and text
will then appear in the "string to print the barcode" field. To see
the string represented as the font, deselect the "show string as
selected font" option.

In a program such as Microsoft Word, place the cursor on the
area for the barcode, and then choose the IDAutomationPDF417n3
font.

Choose Edit - Paste to paste the barcode string into the application.
