Adding Barcode

[Cdobbs]

I need to add a barcode to every page of a pdf. The barcode is simple, just a 4 charters code and a number based on the page number.

The pdf does not have any fields.

I'm assuming this could be done with java. But not having any luck finding an answer.

Thank you

Hello @Cdobbs

Here is an article about Nitro's barcode tool: https://kb.gonitro.com/knowledgebase#/search/barcode/000004306

Once you add a barcode, you can go to the Properties tab to make copes to every page.

I hope that helps!

Leslie,

Thank you for your reply.

I can get a barcode on every page. But how do I change the value of the barcode based on the page number?

I would assume it can be done using the Custom calculation script. But I can't find any details on variables names. Nitro javascript help page, isn't very helpful.

Hello @Cdobbs

Nitro (as a PDF program) supports Javascript. Please note though that we (Customer Support) do not provide support for creating and editing scripts, because we are not trained for this.

Should you need any additional assistance with this type of script, a web search will generate the information you are looking for. 

Sorry about that! Cheers!
