Barcode to Stream 

Barbecue is a free and open source Java library for Barcode generation. This requires the library barbecue-1.5-beta1.jar to be in classpath. The following example shows streaming CODE 128B Barcode to OutputStream.

package com.bethecoder.tutorials.barbecue;

import java.io.FileOutputStream;
import java.io.OutputStream;

import net.sourceforge.barbecue.Barcode;
import net.sourceforge.barbecue.BarcodeFactory;
import net.sourceforge.barbecue.BarcodeImageHandler;

public class BarCode2StreamTest {

  public static void main (String [] argsthrows Exception {

    //Get 128B Barcode instance from the Factory
    Barcode barcode = BarcodeFactory.createCode128B("be the coder");

    //Ouput stream to File/Socket/servlet response stream
    OutputStream outStream = new FileOutputStream("teststream.png");
    
    //Write the bar code to OutputStream
    BarcodeImageHandler.writePNG(barcode, outStream);
  }
}
   

It gives the following output,
