As I see it I believe you have two alternatives:

1) Embedded web fonts which are highly browser dependent (IE has support for this since long time ago, FF added it after 3.5 and it is now a CSS2 standard - see https://developer.mozilla.org/en/css/@font-face for details and examples) - if you go for this, all you will have to do is to find (and, eventually, reprocess) a free downloadable barcode font and point to it;

2) Image replacement, by creating an image of the barcode on your server and reference it in the resulting web page (you'll have to manage, besides the processing of the image - a GDI class will be handy for this - the storage on the web server, including for how long the image will be available).
