1I think you'd struggle to get this spot on using css. Different browsers and resolutions will play a nightmare with your spacing.Liam– Liam2012-08-28 09:23:39 +00:00Commented Aug 28, 2012 at 9:23

You can create an HTML representation of your barcode, just remember: The way a page is showed depends on the styles you apply to it, and the way the client interprets it (That's wy I.E. is a pain in the...).
A barcode has dimension restrictions to be interpreted. That would make your styling a mess.
Besides, when printing a webpage, the client (Internet Explorer, Mozilla, Chrome, Safari etc.) could have been configured by the user to save ink or improve legibility, so the barcode might not get printed the best.
I'm with t3hn00b. The easiest would be to generate the barcode in server as a jpg or png that is inserted in your html. That way you keep the dimensions and your barcode is less prone to errors when printing.
