Sarah, The easiest way to generate a barcode using a font in Code 39 is to:
1) Make sure you have the prefix and postfix characters appended. For Code 39 that's an asterisk. Your reader will eat this character, so it won't display when you scan it. 2) Figure out if your reader is requiring a checksum. If it is, email me privately and I'll send you the algorithm. 3) Figure out what Code 39 characters and symbology you need. The place to start is to make a number to encode. Try 12345...except to make it code 39 you have to use *12345* (assuming no checksum). After you can verify that this works, then you have to decide if you want the full ASCII character set to be encodable, or just a subset (uppercase alpha characters, number, and a couple of symbols). Email me privately for more on this as well so we make sure that you are properly encoding your string. Mike. _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
