Display Barcodes in SSRS reports

I have some Barcode data stored in a SQL Server table with the font Code39-Digit the barcodes are stored in the table as *12312313213*.

I am trying to create a report in SSRS with the barcodes (scanner readable).

I have tried the following two methods and got nowhere :( .

  1. How to embed Barcodes in your SSRS report

  2. .NET Barcode Generator/SDK for SSRS Tutorial

Method 1 does not support the Barcode font Code39-Digit.

Method 2 I managed to show Barcodes in the BIDS but when I deploy the report to a server it goes all pear shape. The barcode wont show at all on the Reports Manager.

I have made sure that my Reports Server has the Font installed. but no luck so far.

I am running out of options any suggestions or pointer in the right direction are much appreciated.

Thank you.
