You can download the 128 barcode font from here:

http://www.barcodelink.net/barcode-font.php

Copy the font to C:\Windows\Fonts on both the client and server. You should be able to access this in your VS instance. Don't forget to restart the report server.

I had to do something similar with 3 of 9 barcode. So I believe it is the same process.

Let me know if you've anymore questions.

Thanks

  • And then what should I write in the report? how I use it? – Tehila Dec 08 '19 at 05:17
  • Hi Tehila, apologies for getting back late. So it's exactly like changing the font on any text. So create a text box, type in text or input a dataset value. Then at the top tool bar where you change the font, you should have the option to change to 128 barcode font, once of course you've install the font on both your own machine and the reporting server.
