How to Generate Barcode , Save It Into a folder and Display Generated Barcode
1. Initially You have to download the open source DLL iTextSharp(For Create Pdf)
2. Add the iTextSharp DLL To the project.
3. Create a folder with name barcodes to store barcode inside the pdf.
4. Add iTextSharp namespace to the Project.
using iTextSharp.text;
using iTextSharp.text.pdf;
using iTextSharp.text.html.simpleparser;
5. Store the value you want to Generate Barcode in to the Variable Code
6. Then you can generate barcodes.
7.Go and see the barcodes Folder In the Project to see the generated Barcode inside Pdf

Barcode Generating Code
string id = Guid.NewGuid().ToString();

PdfWriter.GetInstance(pdfDoc, MS);
pdfDoc.Open();
// string code = dtExcelData.Rows[j].ItemArray[0].ToString();
string sWorkPath = "";

string Code ="12345";
// Multiply the lenght of the code by 40 (just to have enough width)
int w = Code.Length * 40;
// int w = Code.Length * 25;
// Create a bitmap object of the width that we calculated and height of 100
Bitmap oBitmap = new Bitmap(w, 100);
// then create a Graphic object for the bitmap we just created.
Graphics oGraphics = Graphics.FromImage(oBitmap);
PrivateFontCollection fnts = new PrivateFontCollection();
fnts.AddFontFile(sWorkPath + @"\IDAutomationHC39M.ttf");
FontFamily fntfam = new FontFamily("IDAutomationHC39M", fnts);
System.Drawing.Font oFont = new System.Drawing.Font(fntfam, 18);
PointF oPoint = new PointF(2f, 2f);
SolidBrush oBrushWrite = new SolidBrush(Color.Black);
SolidBrush oBrush = new SolidBrush(Color.White);
oGraphics.FillRectangle(oBrush, 0, 0, w, 100);
oGraphics.DrawString("*" + Code + "*", oFont, oBrushWrite, oPoint);
System.Web.UI.WebControls.Image imgBarCode = new System.Web.UI.WebControls.Image();
using (MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream())

}
iTextSharp.text.Image i = iTextSharp.text.Image.GetInstance(oBitmap, System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Bmp);
pdfDoc.Add(i);
pdfDoc.Close();
Response.Buffer = true;
