Easy way for any application or language to generate barcodes is to
install a barcode font on the client machine, then just generate a
suitable text string for it. This is _very_ easy, if you can get the
font deployed.  I usually find myself using Code 39 and printing them
from a HTML document. There are plenty of free code 39 fonts around and
the string mangling to get the barcode structured correctly is just a
trivial prefix / suffix.
