Install-Package BarCode
In this tutorial, we explore how to generate barcodes and export them to PDF using the Iron Barcode library. First, ensure Iron Barcode is installed in your project via the NuGet package manager. Begin by including the Iron Barcode namespace in your program. Then, create a new barcode instance using the barcode writer's create method, passing in a URL and encoding type. After generating the barcode, you have multiple export options: save directly as a PDF, export as binary data for database storage or network transmission, or as a stream for integration into larger data streams. Running the project results in a PDF file that encapsulates the generated barcode, representing the input URL. This PDF can be printed or embedded into other documents. The tutorial concludes by encouraging viewers to subscribe for more tutorials and offering a 30-day free trial of the software. For more details, follow the link in the description.
