 ## Introduction to Generating Custom Barcode Labels in Aspose.Words for Java
 
-In this comprehensive guide, we will delve into the process of generating custom barcode labels using Aspose.Words for Java. Aspose.Words for Java is a powerful API that allows developers to manipulate Word documents programmatically. One of its remarkable features is the ability to work with barcode labels, making it a valuable tool for businesses and organizations that require customized barcode solutions.
+Barcodes are essential in modern applications, whether you're managing inventory, generating tickets, or building ID cards. With Aspose.Words for Java, creating custom barcode labels becomes a breeze. This step-by-step tutorial will guide you through generating custom barcode labels using the IBarcodeGenerator interface. Ready to dive in? Let's go!
 
-## Prerequisites
 
-Before we dive into the details of generating custom barcode labels, let's ensure we have the prerequisites in place:
+## Prerequisites
 
-1. Java Development Environment: Make sure you have Java and an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) installed on your system.
+Before we start coding, ensure you have the following:
 
-2. Aspose.Words for Java: Download and install Aspose.Words for Java from [here](https://releases.aspose.com/words/java/).
+- Java Development Kit (JDK): Version 8 or above.
+- Aspose.Words for Java Library: [Download here](https://releases.aspose.com/words/java/).
+- Aspose.BarCode for Java Library: [Download here](https://releases.aspose.com/).
+- Integrated Development Environment (IDE): IntelliJ IDEA, Eclipse, or any IDE you prefer.
+- Temporary License: Obtain a [temporary license](https://purchase.aspose.com/temporary-license/) for unrestricted access.
 
-3. Basic Knowledge of Java: Familiarity with Java programming will be helpful as we'll be writing Java code to create custom barcode labels.
+## Import Packages
 
-## Creating Custom Barcode Labels
+We’ll use Aspose.Words and Aspose.BarCode libraries. Import the following packages into your project:
 
-Now, let's start creating custom barcode labels using Aspose.Words for Java. We'll break down the process into steps and provide Java code snippets for each step.
+```java
+import com.aspose.barcode.generation.*;
+import com.aspose.words.BarcodeParameters;
+import com.aspose.words.IBarcodeGenerator;
+import java.awt.*;
+import java.awt.image.BufferedImage;
+```
 
-## Setting the Barcode Height
+These imports allow us to utilize barcode generation features and integrate them into Word documents.
 
-To begin, we need to set the height of our barcode in twips (1/1440 inches). We'll then convert this value to millimeters (mm). Here's the code to accomplish this:
+Let’s break this task into manageable steps.
 
-```java
-	// Input value is in 1/1440 inches (twips)
-	int heightInTwips = tryParseInt(heightInTwipsString);
-	if (heightInTwips == Integer.MIN_VALUE)
-		throw new Exception("Error! Incorrect height - " + heightInTwipsString + ".");
-	// Convert to mm
-	return (float) (heightInTwips * 25.4 / 1440.0);
-```
+## Step 1: Create a Utility Class for Barcode Operations
 
-## Converting Barcode Image Color
+To simplify barcode-related operations, we’ll create a utility class with helper methods for common tasks like color conversion and size adjustment.
 
-Next, we'll convert the barcode image color from Word to Aspose.BarCode. The input color should be in the format "0xRRGGBB" (hexadecimal). Here's the code for the conversion:
+### Code:
 
 ```java
-/// <summary>
-/// Converts barcode image color from Word to Aspose.BarCode.
-/// </summary>
-/// <param name="inputColor"></param>
-/// <returns></returns>
-private static Color convertColor(String inputColor) throws Exception {
-	// Input should be from "0x000000" to "0xFFFFFF"
-	int color = tryParseHex(inputColor.replace("0x", ""));
-	if (color == Integer.MIN_VALUE)
-		throw new Exception("Error! Incorrect color - " + inputColor + ".");
-	return new Color((color >> 16), ((color & 0xFF00) >> 8), (color & 0xFF));
+class CustomBarcodeGeneratorUtils {
+    public static double twipsToPixels(String heightInTwips, double defVal) {
+        try {
+            int lVal = Integer.parseInt(heightInTwips);
+            return (lVal / 1440.0) * 96.0; // Assuming default DPI is 96
+        } catch (Exception e) {
+            return defVal;
+        }
+    }
+
+    public static Color convertColor(String inputColor, Color defVal) {
+        if (inputColor == null || inputColor.isEmpty()) return defVal;
+        try {
+            int color = Integer.parseInt(inputColor, 16);
+            return new Color((color & 0xFF), ((color >> 8) & 0xFF), ((color >> 16) & 0xFF));
+        } catch (Exception e) {
+            return defVal;
+        }
+    }
 }
 ```
 
-## Converting Barcode Scaling Factor
+### Explanation:
 
-Now, we'll convert the barcode scaling factor from a percentage to a float value. This scaling factor determines the size of the barcode. Here's the code for the conversion:
+- `twipsToPixels` Method: Converts twips (used in Word documents) to pixels.
+- `convertColor` Method: Translates hexadecimal color codes to `Color` objects.
 
-```java
-/// <summary>
-/// Converts bar code scaling factor from percent to float.
-/// </summary>
-/// <param name="scalingFactor"></param>
-/// <returns></returns>
-private static float convertScalingFactor(String scalingFactor) throws Exception {
-	boolean isParsed = false;
-	int percent = tryParseInt(scalingFactor);
-	if (percent != Integer.MIN_VALUE && percent >= 10 && percent <= 10000)
-		isParsed = true;
-	if (!isParsed)
-		throw new Exception("Error! Incorrect scaling factor - " + scalingFactor + ".");
-	return percent / 100.0f;
-}
-```
+## Step 2: Implement the Custom Barcode Generator
 
-## Implementing the GetBarCodeImage() Method
+We’ll implement the `IBarcodeGenerator` interface to generate barcodes and integrate them with Aspose.Words.
 
-In this step, we'll implement the `getBarcodeImage` method, which generates the barcode image based on the provided parameters. We'll handle different barcode types, set colors, adjust dimensions, and more. Here's the code for this method:
+### Code:
 
 ```java
-/// <summary>
-/// Implementation of the GetBarCodeImage() method for IBarCodeGenerator interface.
-/// </summary>
-/// <param name="parameters"></param>
-/// <returns></returns>
-public BufferedImage getBarcodeImage(BarcodeParameters parameters) throws Exception {
-	// Check if barcode type and value are provided
-	if (parameters.getBarcodeType() == null || parameters.getBarcodeValue() == null)
-		return null;
-
-	// Create a BarcodeGenerator based on the barcode type
-	BarcodeGenerator generator = new BarcodeGenerator(EncodeTypes.QR);
-	String type = parameters.getBarcodeType().toUpperCase();
-	switch (type)
-	{
-		case "QR":
-			generator = new BarcodeGenerator(EncodeTypes.QR);
-			break;
-		// Handle other barcode types here
-	}
-
-	// Set the barcode text
-	generator.setCodeText(parameters.getBarcodeValue());
-
-	// Set barcode colors
-	if (parameters.getForegroundColor() != null)
-		generator.getParameters().getBarcode().setBarColor(convertColor(parameters.getForegroundColor()));
-	if (parameters.getBackgroundColor() != null)
-		generator.getParameters().setBackColor(convertColor(parameters.getBackgroundColor()));
-
-	// Set symbol height and dimensions
-	if (parameters.getSymbolHeight() != null)
-	{
-		generator.getParameters().getImageHeight().setPixels(convertSymbolHeight(parameters.getSymbolHeight()));
-		generator.getParameters().setAutoSizeMode(AutoSizeMode.NONE);
-	}
-
-	// Customize code text location
-	generator.getParameters().getBarcode().getCodeTextParameters().setLocation(CodeLocation.NONE);
-	if (parameters.getDisplayText())
-		generator.getParameters().getBarcode().getCodeTextParameters().setLocation(CodeLocation.BELOW);
-
-	// Additional adjustments for QR codes
-	final float SCALE = 2.4f; // Empiric scaling factor for converting Word barcode to Aspose.BarCode
-	float xdim = 1.0f;
-	if (generator.getBarcodeType().equals(EncodeTypes.QR))
-	{
-		generator.getParameters().setAutoSizeMode(AutoSizeMode.NEAREST);
-		generator.getParameters().getImageWidth().setInches(generator.getParameters().getImageWidth().getInches() * SCALE);
-		generator.getParameters().getImageHeight().setInches(generator.getParameters().getImageWidth().getInches());
-		xdim = generator.getParameters().getImageHeight().getInches() / 25;
-		generator.getParameters().getBarcode().getXDimension().setInches(xdim);
-		generator.getParameters().getBarcode().getBarHeight().setInches(xdim);
-	}
-
-	// Apply scaling factor
-	if (parameters.getScalingFactor() != null)
-	{
-		float scalingFactor = convertScalingFactor(parameters.getScalingFactor());
-		generator.getParameters().getImageHeight().setInches(generator.getParameters().getImageHeight().getInches() * scalingFactor);
-		if (generator.getBarcodeType().equals(EncodeTypes.QR))
-		{
-			generator.getParameters().getImageWidth().setInches(generator.getParameters().getImageHeight().getInches());
-			generator.getParameters().getBarcode().getXDimension().setInches(xdim * scalingFactor);
-			generator.getParameters().getBarcode().getBarHeight().setInches(xdim * scalingFactor);
-		}
-		generator.getParameters().setAutoSizeMode(AutoSizeMode.NONE);
-	}
-
-	// Generate and return the barcode image
-	return generator.generateBarCodeImage();
+class CustomBarcodeGenerator implements IBarcodeGenerator {
+    public BufferedImage getBarcodeImage(BarcodeParameters parameters) {
+        try {
+            BarcodeGenerator gen = new BarcodeGenerator(
+                CustomBarcodeGeneratorUtils.getBarcodeEncodeType(parameters.getBarcodeType()),
+                parameters.getBarcodeValue()
+            );
+
+            gen.getParameters().getBarcode().setBarColor(
+                CustomBarcodeGeneratorUtils.convertColor(parameters.getForegroundColor(), Color.BLACK)
+            );
+            gen.getParameters().setBackColor(
+                CustomBarcodeGeneratorUtils.convertColor(parameters.getBackgroundColor(), Color.WHITE)
+            );
+
+            return gen.generateBarCodeImage();
+        } catch (Exception e) {
+            return new BufferedImage(100, 100, BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_ARGB);
+        }
+    }
+
+    public BufferedImage getOldBarcodeImage(BarcodeParameters parameters) {
+        throw new UnsupportedOperationException();
+    }
 }
 ```
 
-## Implementing the GetOldBarcodeImage() Method
+### Explanation:
+
+- `getBarcodeImage` Method:
+  - Creates a `BarcodeGenerator` instance.
+  - Sets barcode color, background color, and generates the image.
 
-In this step, we'll implement the `getOldBarcodeImage` method, which generates barcode images for old-fashioned barcodes. Here, we'll handle a specific barcode type, such as POSTNET. Here's the code for this method:
+## Step 3: Generate a Barcode and Add It to a Word Document
+
+Now, we’ll integrate our barcode generator into a Word document.
+
+### Code:
 
 ```java
-/// <summary>
-/// Implementation of the GetOldBarcodeImage() method for IBarCodeGenerator interface.
-/// </summary>
-/// <param name="parameters"></param>
-/// <returns></returns>
-public BufferedImage getOldBarcodeImage(BarcodeParameters parameters)
-{
-	if (parameters.getPostalAddress() == null)
-		return null;
-	BarcodeGenerator generator = new BarcodeGenerator(EncodeTypes.POSTNET);
-	{
-		generator.setCodeText(parameters.getPostalAddress());
-	}
-	// Hardcode type for old-fashioned Barcode
-	return generator.generateBarCodeImage();
+import com.aspose.words.*;
+
+public class GenerateCustomBarcodeLabels {
+    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
+        // Load or create a Word document
+        Document doc = new Document();
+        DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(doc);
+
+        // Set up custom barcode generator
+        CustomBarcodeGenerator barcodeGenerator = new CustomBarcodeGenerator();
+        BarcodeParameters barcodeParameters = new BarcodeParameters();
+        barcodeParameters.setBarcodeType("QR");
+        barcodeParameters.setBarcodeValue("https://example.com");
+        barcodeParameters.setForegroundColor("000000");
+        barcodeParameters.setBackgroundColor("FFFFFF");
+
+        // Generate barcode image
+        BufferedImage barcodeImage = barcodeGenerator.getBarcodeImage(barcodeParameters);
+
+        // Insert barcode image into Word document
+        builder.insertImage(barcodeImage, 200, 200);
+
+        // Save the document
+        doc.save("CustomBarcodeLabels.docx");
+
+        System.out.println("Barcode labels generated successfully!");
+    }
 }
 ```
