Hi,
here's the thing - I have a field and I want its value to become a barcode during generating PDF. I customised the form template but I can't for the life of me make it generate a freaking barcode. I've installed picqer/php-barcode-generator, but DOMPDF goes south the moment I try to use it.
Of course there are workarounds (like generating graphical barcodes BEFORE and linking them in a form template), but I'm just wondering if DOMPDF can generate them on the fly thanks to some... er... extensions or additional libraries?
Oh, and by 'barcodes' I mean mainly TYPE_CODE_128_A barcodes, alas QR is not an option as it requires 2D scanners.
