When you change the barcode dimension directly from the
screen by moving the drag handle, the changed dimension will
also appear in this dialog box.
Some of the barcode types also allow the definition of Narrow-
to-wide bar ratio. It can only be set from the predefined steps
in the pull-down menu - 1:2, 1:3 or 2:5.
Base element width (mils) is calculated automatically from the
X expansion factor.
v. The Check Digit Tab will allow you to include a system
automated check digits or enter your own. Check digits
can be disabled on some barcodes from this tab as well.
vi. The Human Readable Tab allows you to manipulate the
human readable text printed with your barcode. Here you
can disable Human Readable, select position (above or
below the barcode), include a check digit, and choose your
font type and scaling.
vii. The Details Tab allows you to set some further details of
the barcode presentations on the printer. These settings are
listed here:
Include Quiet Zones will enable the software to automati-
cally create the necessary amount of free space before and
after the barcode symbol by drawing an unprintable buffer
area around the barcode symbol on the screen.
Descender Bars allows EAN 13, EAN 8, UPC A and UPC E
to print longer first, middle and last bars when this option
is selected.
Mirror Horizontally will allow the barcode to be printed
as a graphic and will so it can be mirrored over the
horizontal axis.
Mirror Vertically allows the barcode to be printed as a
graphic so it can be mirrored over the vertical axis.
Intercharacter Gap: Some barcodes allow you to change
the gap between characters in the barcode (e. g. Code-39).
The barcode prints as a graphic.
Include EAN white space: A special character is inserted
before and/or after the barcode. It indicates the width of
the barcode. If you place any other object in the extent of
the barcode, it will reduce the readability of the barcode.
This option is valid for EAN barcode types.
