richarro1234 Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 Hey there, im trying to find a PHP script where i can scan an image of a barcode and have it show up the number from the barcode, i have found one so far, but there is no download for it. Does anyone know where i can find such a script or does anyone know how to code such a script that i can use on my website. Thanks Rich Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/196310-help-with-php-script/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
oni-kun Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 There is a PHP OCR class but that's the best you can get, I'm not aware of any actual "barcode" reading scripts.

richarro1234 Posted March 24, 2010 Author Share Posted March 24, 2010 this is the one i found: http://www.mperfect.net/barCode/ scroll down to where it says "web interface" upload any image of a barcode and it will show the numbers from it, so there is one somewhere, but this one doesnt have a download section or anything where i can get this script.

I doubt they'd release a script they developed theirselves, It most likely uses GD for OCR or comparative analysis on the numbers once the strip is extracted. I don't think anyone in paticular would write something for this to be released.

premiso Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 If you are on a Linux Host, Linux has a few barcode applications, if on Debian, search Aptitude Package Manager for BarCode. Should have a few for reading / creating them and you should be able to call it via command line using system. I have never done this, just expressing a way that a PHP script could (the only way that I know of) do it. But as far as PHP doing it on it's own, I do not know of any way other then accessing a thridparty application via system.
