Hello,
I need to show barcode string(example :1001847983) into barcode image in A UIView.Does the iPhone SDK supports barcode fonts ? I don't need reading the barcode, I just want to show the string in barcode lines.
Thanks In advance Raghu
A:
No, there is no built-in way to display barcodes. You'll have to create a custom view to convert and display them yourself. Simplest way would probably be to make each black line an opaque, empty UIView and add a lot of them with the correct frames to a UIView subclass.
Built-in iPhone fonts are here:

Sorry, I didn't get the point "black line opaque..."

If you don't understand what that means, you need to learn a little more about UIKit. Here's a good starting point: http://developer.apple.com/iphone/library/documentation/UIKit/Reference/UIView_Class/UIView/UIView.html
