Bar codes are just fonts. In the past I have used a font to display Bar Codes generated in Crystal reports.
A standard format for the code must be defined for item you are scanning, eg length and pre and postfix characters. For example a Medical Record Number (I work in health) might represented as %0797613% which when displayed as a bar code, could be read by a bar code scanner . You would need to install the font ( and there are free versions out there ) on your development machine and I assume the CF server(s). Maybe your bar code scanners come with a font they prefer.
