Bar code fonts

Hello,

I'm trying to get the SOP Pick Ticket to print bar code fonts so the bar code scanner can read it instead of the user typing. What do I need to download to get the bar code fonts to work in GP 10?

Thanks

Link provided by Richard will work, but you need to use it with Crystal Reports as the report writer cannot use these, take a look into the following article that uses the same for the Asset label, it might help:

Mohammad, it has been a while since I used these fonts but I know I installed them once as a Window font and then I went into RW and changed the SOP picking ticket and it printed the bar codes fonts just fine. This was back in GP 8. Perhaps the newer RW does not allow for this?

If you install the font as a windows font, RW works fine. Keep in mind that some fonts and scanning systems need lead-in codes. So to print 1234 as a bar code, you will print *1234* in the 3of9 font.

I am not sure what I been doing wrong, but I never been able to generate barcodes using RW! Your posts guys encouraged me to test again and it worked like a charm!
