Hello!

Does anybody know, how to make a command for barcode 128. This means that
barcode can include alphabets not just numbers like Ean 13. I need this on
printed invoice (Invoice Number).

Command for direct printing is:

Lineprint(chr(27)&'b323'&chr(30)&'0001000666100'&chr(30),vrata)

'0001000666100' This is just example, of displayed numbers.

I thing b323 is the point witch code is selected.

If anybody know how to make this, please reply!

Thanks!
Bojch

Hi Bojch,

You might want to go to http://www.comsoft7.com/Prices.htm and download the
free BoTPL(tm) Template set. There is a bar code label template included
with all of the rest of the other various templates. You can see how it is
done in that template.

Also, following are some excerpts from some previous messages on the
subject....

Chuck,

You dont really need a template, though you can find a link to the Taboga
templates at http://www.tomruby.com/clarion

All you really need is a 3 of 9 font (for example) and then do this with the
invoice number: '*' & clip(invoicenumber) & '*' and print that value.

Other font methods require different functionality, so you may wish to
examine the Taboga stuff for them.

I just use this freeware font (3of9.ttf) and print a string like *12345*
where 12345 is
the invoice #.. Works great on any windows printer and every bar-code
scanner I've ever tried.... If you want to get into creating Code 128, EAN,
UPC, etc... then I would go the template route...

Hey Bojch

Hi Can anyone here tell me a few advantages of using BarCode Generator
Machines over regular PC with some software that generates them!!!! Why
buy an expensive equipment when regular PCs can also generate
BarCodes!!!

Hi Whoever You Are,

The answer to your question is "primarily" that a dedicated BarCode
Generator will create/print barcodes of a finer/better resolution (less
fuzzy edges on the individual bars) so that they are easier for a scanner to
read. Some companies have specifications for this sort of thing and will
require the printed barcodes for their particular needs to pass a test of
some sort to see if a particular barcode generation process/equipment will
work properly for their need. An example would be testing to see if a
certain hand-held scanner can read a bar code from a few feet away when
checking inventory stock. Also some barcode scanners will tolerate reading
less perfect barcodes than other scanners.
