How to create a barcode and print (in one click of a button)?

Hi all

I am trying to create a barcode and to print it in just a click of a button. I am sure many other people are aiming to solve the same issue. And i assume that a Plugin, especially made for this need, would find much appreciation! To all you contributors & Plugin makers… eg. @vini_brito :slight_smile:

Current steps that i try to get this thing working:

  1. create Barcode (with Plugin)
  2. generate a PDF with that Barcode in it (with Plugin)
  3. Print the Barcode/PDF (with Plugin & API Print Solution)

More in details:

1. create Barcode
Currently i am trying to create barcodes with the great plugin “Barcode & QR Code Generator” made by @nicholasrbarrow

The problem for me is that this Plugin only generates SVGs.

2. generate a PDF with that Barcode in it
I am using the wonderful Plugin “PDF Conjurer” made by @vini_brito. The Plugin works great. But i am not able to inut a SVG. Only images such as JPGs or PNGs are supported.

3. Print the Barcode/PDF
The Plugin “PrintNode - Remote Printing” by @maru works easy and is fast in setting up.

PrintNode is not very expensive but very reliable as i know. But unfortuatelly it only supports PDF or RAW printing.
Thats why i try to create a PDF with the Barcode on it.

If anyone out there has experience with RAW printing on a Dymo LabelWriter 450, then please let me know :+1: I have no idea how to set this up…

I tried the “SVG Coverter”-Plugin by @ZeroqodeSupport to convert the SVG to PNG or JPEG. But unfortunately that is not working, because the SVG that i generated by the “Barcode & QR Code Generator”-Plugin provides a Link that i save in my DB.
The “SVG Coverter”-Plugin can only convert SVG-Code that is inside the html (like the Chart Element as iin the example of ZQ). At least this is how i understand it. Please correct me.

Has anyone experience or issues the same problems?
Then i am inviting you to share your thoughts and solutions with others in this Thread

Have you tried this plugin to generate QR code? It gives you image URL as output instead of SVG

Thanks, but i guess it’s only generating QR Codes. Not Barcodes.

Hello @store,

You can take a look at our PDF Converter plugin: Bubble Page to PDF converter Plugin for Bubble | Zeroqode

We’ve tested it with SVG and it works properly. You would only need to display the link you saved in the database in a group/image element and generate a PDF.

Besides, you can check our free Print Plugin, here: Print Plugin for Bubble | Zeroqode

Hope that helps!

Best regards,
Zeroqode Support Team

@store try version 3.0.1 or above of my Barcode & QR code Generator, I included an action convert svg to png: Barcode & QR Code Generator Plugin | Bubble .

Thank you very much @ZeroqodeSupport ! Looks like a great way for everyone who wants to render the image first on screen and then to covert. For my case I’ll use @nicholasrbarrow 's update to convert in the same workflow step.

Hi! I’m in the same boat here. I need a barcode generated from a sequential number, just that. How did you make the workflow work?
