Streaming Barcode Server for IIS

Add barcode streaming generation capability to Microsoft Internet Information Server (IIS).

Stream barcodes into webpages and applications that can display a dynamic URL such as ASP.NET, PHP, SharePoint, Crystal Reports, FileMaker and more.

Barcode generation is server-side, fast and efficient without any temp files generated on the server.

Image specified as URL allows use from many operating systems and development environments including mobile apps.

Easily install by copying 3 files to the virtual directory or IIS application where barcodes are needed.

This is a perpetually licensed version of the Dynamic Barcode Generator Service, except it is installed and managed by the licensee.

Barcode Streaming functionality provided is also available as an annual subscription with the IDAutomation SaaS Barcode Generator service.

Supports generation of barcodes such as Code 128, Code 39, Intelligent Mail IMb, UPC, Data Matrix, PDF417, QR Code, Aztec and much more.

Licenses from $595.

Overview

other applications

development environments

Once installed, server-side barcode images are generated on the server in memory and streamed to the client without saving any temp files on the server. This implementation is compatible with all web browsers and is easy to embed in HTML or ASP scripts as an image with the <IMG> tag. Because the barcode image is retrieved from a URL, the ASP Barcode Component for IIS is compatible with many other development environments and operating systems. The following source code example demonstrates a simple method used to create dynamic barcodes within an HTML script:

<HTML> <BODY> <P>This web page uses ASP code to create a secure barcode.</P> <% @ LANGUAGE = VBScript %> <% BarcodeData = "123456789012" %> <P><img src="<%="IDAutomationStreamingLinear.aspx?Barcode=" & BarcodeData %>"</P> </BODY> </HTML>

Features:

"Your barcode toolkit is more flexible than other toolkits on the market. I am building a new product line into my document imaging product and part of the features includes displaying a barcode on a web form. It took me less than 15 minutes to integrate with my solution." - Bryant Cobarrubias, DocEdge, Inc., Bensenville, IL

Easy-to-Install: Copy three (3) files to the virtual directory where barcodes are needed.

Easy to Use: Server-side scripting, JavaScript or dynamic HTML may be used to include barcodes in a web page with the <IMG> tag. Parameters in the IMG tag determine what is encoded in the barcode.

Fast and Efficient: No temp files are created on the server as the IIS barcode image is sent directly to the browser as a base-256 binary stream which results in greater performance. Run-time write access to the server is not required. A performance test shows an average response time of 33 ms for 2000 clients requesting barcodes over 1 minute during business hours.

Mature: This product has been in use since 2006.

Compatible With All Browsers: Because the barcode image is generated on the server, it is compatible with all web browsers that can view GIF or JPEG images including early versions of Internet Explorer, Mozilla and Netscape.

Flexible: Properties may be set with parameters in the URL such as the symbology type, orientation, color, barcode height and X dimension.

Full GS1-128 & GS1-DataMatrix Support: Easy methods are included to encode application identifiers into symbols.

Tilde Functions: Tilde functionality allows encoding of returns, tabs and other functions such as GS and RS functions between fields in a single barcode symbol.

Selectable Orientation: Angles of 0, 90, 180 or 270 are supported.

Royalty-Free: Developer Licenses for this product are perpetual and royalty-free.

Safe & Secure: This is a 100% managed code product created in Visual C# .NET with strong name signatures and signed DLLs.

Source Code: Source code to the streaming project DLL is available with the purchase of any Developer License and a signed Source Code Agreement.
