If you are using AFP, you can create BCOCA (Bar Code Object Content Architecture) bar codes instead of using fonts. See how to use the AFP Toolbox from COBOL applications to create bar codes. The AFP Toolbox documentation is in the PSF bookshelf. Here is the latest level bookshelf: http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/SHELVES/apsbk430
