I developed forms with PDF417 barcodes. I need to replace the barcodes with third-party barcode control (long story)! I can get the barcode source code in C++, java, etc. Is that possible?
thanks,

You can create your own custom controls in LiveCycle Designer by using the existing controls and JavaScript. You can read about this in the LiveCycle documentation. Most likely you can create the PDF417 barcode control this way.
There is no public plug-in interface for LiveCycle designer so controls cannot be added this way. However, this would be inappropiate anyway. The form is run in Acrobat, so that is where the plug-in would need to be, and there isn't much of an interface for LiveCycle in the Acrobat SDK so I don't even think this is a possibility. Anything that was developed for AcroForms is pretty much dead in the water when it comes to LiveCycle.
