Thanks Mike. I think using the fonts would work for
me. I tried using fo:table and then using alternate
black adn white backgroud for the cells and specifying
different cell widhts for each cell but it gets little
cumbersome. I am not yet sure what kind of bar code we
will be using for our project. But this Font thing is
really cool :)

Abhi,
There are several different flavors of barcode, but
the rules are pretty
straightforward and the logic to generate them can
be handled in XSLT. I use:
<fo:leader leader-pattern="rule"
rule-thickness="{$thickness}"
rule-style="solid" leader-length="{$length}"/>
<fo:leader leader-pattern="rule"
rule-thickness="{$void.thickness}"
rule-style="solid" color="white"
leader-length="{$void.length}"/>
See this site for information about calculating
width/height ratios and
character representations:

There may also be bar code fonts you can incorporate
into your document.

Subject: [xsl] Integrating barcode in xsl:fo
Hi,
I want to use barcode with xsl:fo. I downloaded
the
krysalis barocde application but cannot run it.
Has
anyone used something to generate barcodes to be
printed in the pdf file using xsl or xsl:fo ?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Abhi
