Java print barcode labels

Question

Can someone point in the right direction for printing barcode labels using Java? I can use the barbecue library (http://barbecue.sourceforge.net/) to generate them bar codes as images, but I need a way to put the image (and human readable caption) into an Avery document template for printing.

Answer 1

The iText library supports pretty much every kind of barcode imaginable. You can generate pdfs and either save them or print them internally.
