Barcode not Printing when exported to PDF

This seems to be an issue for a lot of people. Is there a workaround for
this?
I am using 3of9.ttf it is on the report server and my local machine. the
barcode shows up inthe web view but disappears in the saved/printed pdf.Hi Eric,
Based on research, this issue seems to be a known issue that is caused by
Acrobat related driver. Usaing different Acrobot version may have different
results. When exporting a report with a barcode font (AdvI25d_.TTF) to a
PDF, the first two characters of the font run together and become
unreadable. The workaround at present is using TIFF image other than this
Font.

You may want to contact Microsoft Customer Support Services (CSS) for more
information on this issue because they may have update on the processing of
resolving this issue with Acrobat because it is more dependent on their
support. I appreciate your understanding on this.
If anything is unclear or you have further questions on this, please feel
free to let us know. Have a great day!

Wei's suggested work-around of converting to tiff doesn't do the job
completely, as the barcode printed from the tiff file is not
scannable.
