php to generate 2 dimiensional matrix barcode?

searain

Is there anyway to use php to generate 2 dimiensional matrix barcode?

Any information about that will be fine.

Plus, if there is no way for using php to generate 2 dimiensioanl matrix barcode, what else language we can use? Or what kind software and plug in we can use in a php web application project?

Thanks!

Can you elaborate on what exactly you mean by a "2 dimensional matrix barcode"? YOu looking for a bar graph, UPC Code generator, etc? Most of what you need can be googled, and you need the GD2 library installed on your webserver if it isn't already.

the second one down says something about a matrix 25, dont know if its the same thing, but worth a look i suppose.

I googled about two dimensioanl barcode. This is a good article about that. I am learning it myself too.

I don't think the hostscript sample has two dimensioanl barcode in it.

Thanks!

Here is a perfect sample of "Web Server Generated 2 D bar code" which is I am looking for. But it is for microsoft server, asp and IIS.

I am looking for something simliar but for Unix/php/apache.

Any helps?

it looks like they do offer some binaries for linux too. did you have any of the os's listed there?

The one they offer for the Unix/Linux is not for the "web server generated 2D bar code". It is for the Unix and Linux OS I think.

I am looking for "web server generated 2D bar code" but in Unix/Apache/PHP platform.

I have googled about it. Looks like the "web server generated 2D bar code" I found were all using ActiveX component and all on IIS etc.

Help appreciated.
