Barcodes in PDF

Hi there
I am creating a report with MS SQL reporting services 2000 that includes a
barcode. It 's for a kind of ticket creation.
So, I am using the Code 3of9 font to create my barcodes. So for example
*01511051* is the text, but font type is code 3àf9, giving the barcode in
display
When exporting to HTML, there is no issue, barcode is displayed fine, as
well as in the preview of visual studio. But as soon as I export it to PDF,
the barcode is gone.
Is there anyone that has some experience in this? How can I resolve this?
Weird thing is that when creating the same report in Crystal Reports and
exporting to PDF, it does render the barcode. But Crystal reports is not an
option, it has to be done in reporting services 2000
kind regards
NicoNico,
What happens if u just use standard font?
Does it display it in the PDF?
If it does, perhaps its a Adobe font issue...(I dont know about this,
but perhaps the font needs to be added into it?)
If it doesn't even show the plain (*01511051*), then it may be a
different problem, but Im almost sure its a Abode font issue.
Also,
Choose Start > Settings > Control Panel.
Double-click the Fonts icon, check if that font is located there.

It does not display anything at all when exporting to PDF format. It's just
a blank area on the pdf, whereas in the HTML output, the barcode is
displayed properly
