The code 39 font can be used to render code39 encoded strings.

The font is available in 5 different height to width ratios. (Usually i use code39_XL)

if you need other height to width ratios, you can generate your own font using the barcode font generator

code39_S	1:1	15px
code39	2:1	30px
code39_L	3:1	45px
code39_XL	4:1	60px

You can download the font in .ttf, .woff, and .svg format.

install

You can install it as any other font. To use it as a webfont, you can install with bower:

bower install --save code-39-font

and the in your .html:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="bower_components/code-39-font/code39_all.css"/>
<div class="code_39_XL">*Test*</div>

usage

Code 39 does not require special encoding. the * - character is the start and stop symbol. Only large cap letters can be encoded in code 39, so make sure to .toUpperCase() your strings before displaying.
