Hi Pablo,
I'm resurrecting this thread, as I've just managed to get some progress 
on Windows with zint in LMTX.
The thing is that you need 64-bit DLL, because LuaMetaTex is built for 
64-bit architecture on Windows.
As it is not available, I built 64-bit zint.dll (and zlib + libpng) from 
the latest git sources (2.11.1.9 (dev)),
renamed it to libzint.dll and placed in appropriate place, as per the 
instructions.

But there are still some problems... here is the excerpt from the log:

I tested the library with the generated CLI tool, and I get the barcode 
images created.
Although, png format is not working, I get file with length 0 and no 
error whatsoever.
It could be that there is something wrong with the build, I'll try to 
figure out.

Best regards,
Ivan
