Hi Matt, We have already gone through the links before posting our issue in the forum. The APIs provided by infragistics did not help us. here I want to read barcodes from Tiff and Pdf files. The decode method of barcode reader takes BitMapSource as parameter. So I want to pass my tiff file and pdf file as BitmapSource to the decode method of BarcodeReader. Please let me know how infragistics barcode reader support tiff and pdf files barcode readion. How I should pass my tiff and pdf file to decode method?
Hi Uthay,
I am going to submit a feature request for our XamBarCode Reader to process Tiff and PDF files.
You could consider using a third party software product.
