Note:
If there is an error in the bar code character string, such as
inappropriate data, the bar code will be printed as it appears on the
screen, but it cannot be read by a bar code reader.
Notes on inputting and formatting bar codes
Please note the following when inputting and formatting bar code
characters:
❏ Do not apply shading or special character formatting, such as
bold, italic, or underline.
❏ Print bar codes in black and white only.
❏ When rotating characters, only specify rotation angles of 90°,
180°, and 270°.
❏ Turn off all automatic character and word spacing settings in
your application.
❏ Do not use features in your application that enlarge or reduce
the size of characters in only the vertical or horizontal
direction.
❏ Turn off your application's auto-correct features for spelling,
grammar, spacing, etc.
❏ To more easily distinguish bar codes from other text in your
document, set your application to show text symbols, such as
paragraph marks, tabs, etc.
❏ Because special characters such as Start bar and Stop bar are
added when an EPSON BarCode Font is selected, the
resulting bar code may have more characters than were
originally input.
