<?php
header("Content-type: application/vnd.ms-word");
header("Content-Disposition: attachment;Filename=document_name.doc");

//Change the directory to your own...
$localRoot = "file:///C|/xampp/htdocs/newdwapi/barcodes";

$filename = "img_" . time() . ".gif";
$barcode = "37348678";

require "php-barcode.php";

$im     = imagecreatetruecolor(300, 300);  
$black  = ImageColorAllocate($im,0x00,0x00,0x00);  
$white  = ImageColorAllocate($im,0xff,0xff,0xff);  
imagefilledrectangle($im, 0, 0, 300, 300, $white);  

$data = Barcode::gd($im, $black, 150, 150, 0, "code128", $barcode, 2, 50);  

    function outputImage($im)
    {
        ob_start();
        imagegif($im);
        $content = ob_get_contents();
        ob_end_clean();
        return $content;
    }

$imgout = outputImage($im);
file_put_contents("barcodes/$filename",$imgout);
imagedestroy($im);

?>
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
</head>
<body>
<h1>Here's my Barcode</h1>
<img src="<?php echo $localRoot .'/'. $filename;?>" />
</body>
</html>

The php version seems to work well - although the html page doesn't show the image - the word document does. Note the use of the php class - not the javascript version.
