This professional-grade product includes multiple encoder components for the generation and integration of PDF417 barcode symbols. In this package, IDAutomation provides font encoders and graphic encoders. Font encoders return a text string, that when printed or displayed with the PDF417 font, create the PDF417 bar-code symbol. Graphic encoders simply return a graphic of the symbol.

Encoders provided include: .NET DLL, Forms Control, ASP.NET Web Component, ActiveX DLL, Crystal Reports UFL, Java Class Library, Java Servlet, Native VB Module for Visual Basic, Excel and Access and the Native Crystal Reports Formula. The native formulas provided allow PDF417 barcodes to be created without any DLLs or libraries.
