StrokeScribe will provide developers with additional flexibility and allows to integrate barcode into existing documents from programs that do not support it directly.
Metafiles are used to draw the barcode images, so it allows to print them with different graphical resolutions without image quality loss. Working with barcode comes to specifying a few ActiveX properties and is easily accessible to the average skilled PC user.
