Hi,


 


Can we refer the dynamic bar code generated by Jar in the HTML rule? each time i run the activity i need to generate the bar code code dynamically.


i have followed the same path to create a instance of Data-Image-Content and trying to refer the newly image in the HTML rule.i saw new image is created in pega but when i refer the image in the HTML,it is still showing the previous image.i guess somewhere this previous image is store in the cache and refer when i run the activity to download the PDF.has anyone faced this type of issue while develop this?

I don't think "CreateQRCode" is an OOTB activity, but a custom one used to generate the bar code.

Hi,


 


Install the libre font 30 for rendering the barcode directly from the property values.

1.Create a Folder in the server and place the ttf file in that folder(Let's Assume "Font" is the folder name).


2.Copy the directory path of the folder.


3.Before calling the HTMLtoPDF activity set the following parameters .


   Param.pyPDFFontsDirectory=YourFontDirectoryPath        eg: ("C:\ApacheTomcat\Font")

   Param.pyPDFEmbedFont=true

   Param.pyPDFPropsDirectory=YourFontDirectoryPath    (same Path which is given in the pyPDFFontsDirectory).

   Param.isClearCache=true
