dreimer Posted September 22, 2015 Share Posted September 22, 2015 In Fusion Pro can I create a Code128 barcode as a graphic, similar to the way I can with a QR code? Client wants to be specific on the size of it and changing fonts and point sizes isn't getting it to what they want. TIA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Korn Posted September 22, 2015 Share Posted September 22, 2015 In Fusion Pro can I create a Code128 barcode as a graphic, similar to the way I can with a QR code? There's nothing built-in to do that, no. The Code 128 barcode is one-dimensional, not two-dimensional like a QR barcode. Client wants to be specific on the size of it and changing fonts and point sizes isn't getting it to what they want. Copyfitting should work, either full-flow or CopyfitLine. Another trick you can do, depending on what else is in the template, is to "mask" part of the barcode by simply covering it up with a frame filled with white. I can't offer more specific suggestions without more information, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dreimer Posted September 22, 2015 Author Share Posted September 22, 2015 I did exactly as you said and used a text box filled with the Pantone the same as the artwork. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSweet Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 There are other ways to alter type (or a barcode) using scripts and the character height and width parameters. Can you post a picture of what you are trying to accomplish? Sometimes "putting a box over a portion of the barcode" is not feasible. I've had to alter the height and width before. .
