I have to make an app that takes strings and makes barcodes in different barcode formats.

I found Barcode4j. Looks like a library that fits my needs, but I also found people that says that it doesn't works on Android.

Is this the best library for this?

Thanks in advance.

Zebra Crossing:

is the go to barcode library for android. Even Google uses it :-)

  • But that's a scanner. Can I stay only with the encoding part? Thanks – Joaquín M Jan 10 '12 at 02:06
  • Sure can, also see http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2489048/qr-code-encoding-and-decoding-using-zxing – TryTryAgain Jan 10 '12 at 04:29
  • @Hugo not without heavy modifications, I believe. But it seems those necessary modifications have been done once, as seen in this Barcode4J fork, at least: https://github.com/dingram/barcode4android – TryTryAgain May 20 '16 at 23:07
