<p>The library allows the creation of PDF417 barcodes as either images (in either PNG
or JPEG format) or as a Postscript files. In addition the barcode extension provides
extensive data verification which makes it impossible to create an invalid
barcode</p>
<div class="sect3" title="Verification"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h4 class="title"><a name="id2599918"></a>Verification</h4></div></div></div>
<p>The JpGraph PDF417 barcode module have been extensively verified using an
ARGOX 8213 2D CCD handhold scanner. </p>

<p>Even though the library module is meant, and designed, to be used as a library
within a larger system there is a small demo barcode creation application
included in the distribution. This application can be used to easily create
barcode through it's WEB interface as can be seen in <a class="xref" href="ch25s02.html#fig.pdf417-demoapp" title="Figure 25.3. PDF417 WEB-based demo application">Figure 25.3. PDF417 WEB-based demo application</a></p>
<p>This application is primarily included as a demo on the features available in
the library and not as a finalized product.</p>
<p>The application is available at
"<code class="filename">pdf417/demoapp/index.html</code>" in the distribution. </p>
