   @throws FileNotFoundException 
   */
  public static void main(String[] argsthrows FileNotFoundException, DocumentException {
    Document document = new Document(new Rectangle(PageSize.A4));
    PdfWriter writer = PdfWriter.getInstance(document, new FileOutputStream("pdf417.pdf"));
    document.open();

    //Barcode PDF 417
    document.add(new Paragraph("Barcode PDF 417"));
    BarcodePDF417 pdf417 = new BarcodePDF417();
    pdf417.setText("0123456789");
    
    //Add Barcode to PDF document
