IDAutomation.com, Inc. now provides Native PDF417 Encoders and MacroPDF support in the latest release of the PDF417 Font and Encoder package. The package, which has been sold since 2001, also includes many new font encoders and graphic encoders for easy generation and integration of PDF417 barcode symbols into many different applications and development environments. PDF417 is a bar-code type that has the capability to encode hundreds of characters and even files.

Encoders provided include: .NET DLL, Forms Control, ASP.NET Web Component, ActiveX DLL, Crystal Reports UFL, Java Class Library, Java Servlet, Native VB Module for Visual Basic, Excel and Access and the Native Crystal Reports Formula. The native formulas provided allow PDF417 bar code symbols to be created without any DLLs or libraries.

The download includes examples for Crystal Reports, Microsoft Access, Word and Crystal Reports. Pricing for the package starts at $199 for a single user license. A royalty free developer license, which allows redistribution, costs $1190.
