# Can I extract the driver’s information from a PDF417 barcode?

Yes, you can extract driver’s license information from a PDF417 barcode using the **Dynamsoft Barcode Reader** in combination with the **Dynamsoft Code Parser**.

Check out the sample project on GitHub to see how to decode the PDF417 barcode and parse the data:

👉 [DriversLicenseScanner Sample (Android)](https://github.com/Dynamsoft/barcode-reader-mobile-samples/tree/main/android/FoundationalAPISamples/ReadDriversLicense){:target="\_blank"}  
👉 [DriversLicenseScanner Sample (iOS)](https://github.com/Dynamsoft/barcode-reader-mobile-samples/tree/main/ios/FoundationalAPISamples/ReadDriversLicense){:target="\_blank"}

> These samples include the `DynamsoftCodeParser` library, which is used to extract structured information (such as name, address, license number, etc.) from the raw barcode decoding result.
>
> A **valid license** is required to use the `DynamsoftCodeParser` library.
