Hello

I'm in need of a Free library or control for ASP.NET.

I need to create a project in MVC4, which can generate barcode's, and afterwards also read them from a pdf.

So when you give in a random number in a textbox, I need it to create a barcode of that number, and then save it as pdf. Then it will be printed and scanned together with a paper dossier. After that I need to read the barcode from the first page of that scanned document and link it to the correct file.

I have found various library's or controls, but so far none that are free, or easy to use for a noob like me :)

A barcode library cannot be "MVC4", and hardly even "for ASP.NET". You can have a library for .NET and use it the way your need. First of all, you need to specify the type(s) of the barcode you are interested in; not all libraries will support them all. And, after all, what would prevent your from finding one by yourself?

Like I said, i'v been searching for hours. And so far it's always payed ;) And it's never for use with MVC.

It needs to hold atleast a 10 digit number. So EAN13 and QR would be ideal.

Are you saying that you don't really care what of the standard codes you need, as soon as one can hold 10-digit number (decimal 10-digit, right?)?
