Human Readable Text - Brady BradyPrinter S3700 User Manual

Size
Sizing the barcode affects only the height (vertical length) of the barcode, from top to bottom. To
increase or decrease the height of the barcode:
1. In the Editor, touch the barcode element.
2. In the Barcode control panel, touch Plus to increase the height or touch Minus to decrease the
height.
Note: The font type and size affects the height of the barcode. The barcode and the human
readable text must fit in the frame of the barcode element. As the size of the human readable
text increases, it decreases the height of the barcode.
Ratio
Ratio indicates the ratio of bar height to symbol length. Not all barcode symbology allows you to
change the ratio. If you are using a symbology that does not support this option (i.e., QR Code (2D) or
PDF417 (2D), the Ratio buttons do not display. For those that do support it, to change the ratio:
1. In the Editor, touch the barcode element.
2. In the Barcode control panel, touch the ratio button desired.
Density
Density refers to the thickness of the bars and spaces within a barcode. To change the density:
1. In the Editor, touch the barcode element.
2. In the Barcode control panel, touch the Density button.
3. In the Density dialog box, touch the desired density button.
4. Touch OK.

Font
