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 which 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.
