    PHP + Barcode Generator + PDF Generator

    Like it, use it, great. Don't like it, don't use it, great... I'm not the license police. Just wanted to offer another option to the OP other than having to make in image.. Work smart, not hard, right?

    PHP + Barcode Generator + PDF Generator

    Agreed, but since there's no standard barcode font supplied with any operating system I know, the might be an option to the O/P. The freeware license that comes with this font is a "free for any use" license, meaning you can use it anywhere you like. I'm using the font in a corporate...

    PHP + Barcode Generator + PDF Generator

    It's not my font, I'd just supply the link. it's free for general use - including inside a corporation. not shareware, freeware, I guess you could say. by embedding the font in the page, every system that accessed the page and needed it would be prompted to install the font. It's done all the...

    Another option would be to put at SATA card in there, the dimensions have a single PCI slot inside that would accept the card - if I remember correctly. SATA cards can be had for cheap these days. That way you can keep the old ATA drive in there, install a new SATA drive and do your clone. XP...

    PHP + Barcode Generator + PDF Generator

    Just out of curiosity, is there some reason you couldn't just use a 3 of 9 barcode font? thats by far the easiest way to make barcodes, as long as you start and stop the barcode correctly, it works perfectly and the 3 of 9 is the most widely used barcode out there (next to UPC) - if it's coming...

    Is AVG better than Avast?

    It's all pretty much been said above. None of them are doing a great job of catching the latest struff. You're on the right track with AVG and Avast though. I've run AVG since it came out way back in the day and have been very happy with it. After a recent upgrade to Windows7 x64, I'm now...

    re-entering aviation, what plane?

    Thanks for all the replies everyone... and you've all hit on the right point here. When I signed up for training, I signed up for and paid for all at the same time to including the commercial, CFI, CFII and MEI. I was instructed to go ahead and get a second class medical for the exact reason...

    re-entering aviation, what plane?

    Easy Kent, I'm not trying to scheme the system or anything. In fact, I would rather sacrafice a few hours to start with than have an unrealisticly high time that starts the log book and no skills to go with it. It's not a matter of braggin rights or anything, it's a matter of safety. A 40 hour...

    re-entering aviation, what plane?

    Thank you so much for the reply! I renewed my medical on Thursday with the same doctor that checked me out the first (and only other) time I had a medical. Unfortunatley, my flying career came to an abrupt halt WHILE I was in school, I was building hours towards my commercial license. So, my...

    Passing a class II medical - need help

    I've had my PPL license since 1992, but haven't flown in a number of years, so I have to get my medical back... but I think I have a problem. I have reactive arthritis and have been prescribed prednisone (5mg) daily I've been dealing with it for about 24 months and it's all but subsided now...

    re-entering aviation, what plane?

    Thanks, I went ahead and put in a request to the FAA to send me all their records. Hopefully my last 8710 is in there and that can give me a good start. The doc that did my last FP has long since retired and his practice is closed.

    re-entering aviation, what plane?

    okay, I have one other question. After posting last night, I went through all my aviation goodies to find that my log book has gone missing.. I remember have 492.2 hours total at my last entry, but the log book has gone completley missing. I've moved to three different states and numerous...
