How to print barcodes?
Hi,
I have to print a barcode. I have used the font and it prints the barcode number out like I would expect it to. but th barcode scanner is not reading it????
Does the barcode number need any special characters so that the barcode scanner can read the barcode?
-
Are you including the check digit for the number?
-

Hi shunt
what to you mean the * font?
-
The * is not the font.
I am using the C39 barcode font which requires the * charcter to be placed at the beginning and end of the barcode. I think it uses them to determine that the full barcode has been read.
eg. transaction number = 12345
so text converted to barcode = *12345*
