Thank you Tilman for the options.
Where I can find more info about implementing barcode as vector graphics .. any
documentation supporting that ?
For that (which would be a lot of work!) you'd need to get the
specification for the barcode type that you want to do. For "3 of 9",
start here:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_39 and then click on the links at
the bottom.
then you just draw filled rectangles at the correct position in the
correct size. See the ShowColorBoxes.java example on how to draw a
filled rectangle.
Or have a look at this:

Hello ,
We have a project requirement where we need to display a label which consists
of some text and a barcode . We don't want to display barcode as an buffered
image but generate barcode may be using barcode font . I am not able to find
any references in the examples as to if PDFBox has any way to add barcodes in
pdf without being a image . I would really appreciate your help in the same .
Then get a barcode font. You can draw that one like any text. Usually this is done like
this: *12345* , the "*" is for the beginning and end. Be careful to leave
enough space before and after the barcode.
Don't forget to embed the font. (See the embeddedfonts.java example)
A completely different alternative would be to draw the barcode as vector
graphics. There's no example for this yet AFAIK.
