I want to generate a simple bar code in alfresco share. The bar code will have information like file number.File number like XYZ_345234 will be passed from metadata as input.
The out put should be barcode symbol and English character of file number at bottom.
As far as I know this something which does not come with OOTB alfresco functionality also there is no well known add-on for this still you can search for any add-on available to achieve this . If you get anything please share it across.
You should make a custom forms control for showing the barcode image and a metadata field which holds the info for getting the image … or generate the image client-side if you can.
