I have the need to use gs1-128 barcodes in a form. Currently in designer I do not have that option, so first question is this something that is available from adobe to add on? If so what product supports this. Could a portion of the barcode be linked to another form, specifically what I'd like to do is have the user enter the lot number of a product in one form and have the lot prtion of the barcode linked to that so it auto generates.

This seems to be a standard 1D barcode, which means you can probably find a font for it and then apply that font to a text field.

If that's the case then you can have the value be dynamic, yes, just like with a regular text field.

Thank you for your time.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but would'nt the whole field still be editable though? What I'm looking to do is say have the last 4 digits of the barcode form be tied to the lot form.

ie. Lot 1234

     barcode (1)6789(2)1234

I would not want the user to have access to change (1)6789(2) on the barcode field.

You can set the "barcode" field as read-only and create a separate text field for the last 4 digits which the user could edit.
