Barcodes

TX Text Control supports the insertion of barcode controls of the type TXTextControl.Barcode.TXBarcodeControl. A barcode can be positioned like an image or textframe, either geometrically or as a single character. Geometrically its position can either be relative to a paragraph to which it is anchored or relative to the complete document. The BarcodeFrame class handles the positioning of the barcode in the document. A barcode frame is always associated with a barcode control which handles the appearance and the data of the barcode. All barcodes in a document are contained in a BarcodeCollection. The collection can also be used to add barcodes to or to remove barcodes from the document. The barcode collection can be obtained from a TextControl or ServerTextControl through the Barcodes property. The TextControl.BarcodeLayoutDialog method opens a dialog box which offers layout settings like positioning, size and text distances. A barcode can be saved with the TX Text Control and the RTF format and is reconstructed during a loading process. With other formats the barcode image is saved. If a document with barcodes is loaded on a system where no barcode controls are installed, the barcode's image is inserted.
