Java Intelligent Mail Generator Implementation to Generate Intelligent

1. Generate Intelligent Mail in Java class with the changing of barcode properties.

// Create Java Intelligent Mail (Onecode) object
Onecode barcode = new Onecode();

// Set Intelligent Mail data text to encode
barcode.setData("12345678901234567890");

// Generate Intelligent Mail barcode & print into Graphics2D object
//barcode.drawBarcode("Java Graphics2D object");

// Generate Intelligent Mail barcode & encode into GIF format
barcode.drawBarcode("C://barcode-onecode.gif");

// Generate Intelligent Mail barcode & encode into JPEG format
barcode.drawBarcode("C://barcode-onecode.jpg");

2. Generate & encode Intelligent Mail to EPS with changing the values concerned.

// Create Java Intelligent Mail object
Onecode barcode = new Onecode();

// Set Intelligent Mail data text to encode
barcode.setData("12345678901234567890");

// Generate Intelligent Mail barcode & encode into EPS
barcode.drawBarcode2EPS("C://barcode-onecode.eps");

3. Generate & encode Intelligent Mail in html or jsp pages.

1. Copy barcode folder and its contents from demo package to Apache Tomcat.

2. Start Apache Tomcat, go to http://YourDomain:Port/barcode/barcode?DATA=12345678901234567890&TYPE=onecode

3. Insert an image tag (img) into your page. For example,

<imgsrc="http://YourDomain:Port/barcode/barcode?DATA=12345678901234567890&TYPE=onecode" />

4. Two ways to set the width and height of generated barcode Intelligent Mail image.

1. Set the values of the barcodeWidth and barcodeHeight properties.
or
2. Set X (bar module width) and Y (bar module height) values
