Morovia PDF417 Fontware
Morovia PDF417 Fontware provides a font-based solution of printing PDF417 symbols from other applications. There are many advantages of employing a font- based solution. Fonts contain drawing commands in stead of the information of the pixels, thus they are device-independent. The artwork you created in one platform is available to other platforms, as long as you manage to have the fonts available. The latter can be done either by installing the fonts in the target machine or using font embedding technology. Many applications, such as Adobe Acrobat and Crystal Reports, do not support ActiveX thus the fonts are the only solution.
Although it is a font-based solution, the character set of the font is relatively simple (it contains 16 characters, 0-9 and A-F). The comprehensive logic is hidden in the encoder. On Windows platforms, the encoder is provided as an Active control which does not have any GUI interfaces. In the future we will make the encoder available in binary forms in Macintosh and Unix platforms. We also make the source code available at a premium. The support of platforms outside Windows is not a topic in this guide. If you need to use the font products in other platforms please contact Morovia Sales department at sales@morovia.com.
