munrographics Posted September 29, 2010 Share Posted September 29, 2010 My print job requires both a sequential number and a sequential barcode. How do I do that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rpaterick Posted October 1, 2010 Share Posted October 1, 2010 So your customer just needs to be able to scan the piece and pull up the sequential number? I believe you just have your column numbers as follows (ex:0001) *0001* *0002* *0003* *0004* *0005* You can apply IDAutomationC39M font to it and should scan with basic hand-held scanners. I would scan the piece itself to ensure that it works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rpaterick Posted October 1, 2010 Share Posted October 1, 2010 pardon my stupidity, what are the asterisks for? I'm sure Dan can chime-in for a detailed explanation but it is used for the stop/start character in interpretation the data with Code39 barcodes. If you just had 0001, I believe it won't translate properly from the data to the barcode scanner. Any barcodes that we do at our shop, we always test them to ensure they work properly in-house. More complex barcodes that the client wants done(UPC labels) we go directly to the customer with it to make sure it scans properly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
