How do i scan the barcode of format PDF417 ? Do i need to pass intent extras?
(Note : Zxing barcode app is already installed in my device). Please help me.
Here is my code for using Zxing barcode scanner from my application using Intent

 Intent intent = new Intent("com.google.zxing.client.android.SCAN");
 intent.setPackage("com.google.zxing.client.android");
 intent.putExtra("SCAN_MODE", "PRODUCT_MODE");
 startActivityForResult(intent, MY_ACTIVITY_CONSTANT);

    “PRODUCT_MODE” will never work as PDF417 is not a product barcode format. You need to set “SCAN_FORMATS” to “PDF_417” instead. However you probably will find it difficult to scan PDF417 in general. Barcode Scanner+ will read it better and responds to these intents.
