I did a CFDUMP on the varabies.voucher and copied and pasted it into an HTML document and the barcode shows up. What's interesting is that it won't work in a PDF, and I think that I know why. The dump code consists of all of the span tags that make up the barcode, so it's not actually an image, it's HTML formatting, but when creating the PDF it's not working right. Attached is a small sample:
<span style="border-right:1px solid; border-color: black; height: 50px;margin-bottom:0px;margin-top:0px;"> and so on and so on until the barcode is created. So it seems that making a PDF, it does not know what to do with the SPAN tag. This requires some more digging Bruce On Sep 20, 2012, at 12:25 PM, Chad Gray <[email protected]> wrote: > > This is a guess, because I have no experience with the custom tag to make the > barcode image, but you may want to save the content out at a variable first. > Then put it in the <cfdocument> tag.
