to print, copy it to the clipboard, then copy the translated

strings into your application. At least one program has a "hot-

key" sequence which copies the bar code into your application

without having to first translate and then copy from the

clipboard. After setting the bar code type and density from the

translator, any highlighted data in the application is translated

with the "hot key".

Using fonts, labels can be printed from your favorite word processing program,

or you can add bar codes to a form from almost any font-based Windows

program, (providing your program can call our DLL).

Bar Codes on Packaging or Film Masters

How to Get a UPC Number

If you haven't already been assigned your manufacturer's number by the

Uniform Code Council or appropriate EAN authority, call (UCC is 937-435-

3870) to get registered. You will pay a charge to get a manufacturer's number

assigned, (it's length will depend on how many products you intend to number),

plus you will get an information packet. You then can create unique UPC

numbers for all of your products.

For users who wish to have the bar codes printing as an integral part of their

packaging (such as a sugar bag) there are three ways:

1) Create your packaging design with a Windows or Mac-based

program, using a postscript bar code font package to add the bar

codes to the whole packaging design. The film for the packaging

would include the bar code.

2) Order separate film masters from organizations that specialize in

bar code film masters (such as Symbology Inc. 1-800-328-2612 or

www.symbology.com). Have your printer strip in the bar code

film to the packaging film so that the whole packaging prints with

the bar code included.

After printing, the ink in bars tends to bleed slightly into the spaces. When

creating film masters, the bars should be slightly narrower, (about 1/1000 inch

narrower), to allow for ink spread during printing. Turn down the darkness on

the laser printer if printing bar codes on paper to be photographed.

Whatever method you use, you should have your printer make test print runs. If

you don't use a verifier to test the accuracy of the bar codes, at least:

1) Test them with a bar code reader for readability. You should get

20 out of 20 reads with reasonably careful scanning. Don't accept

any bar code that has less than 100% readability. AND

2) Have your printer (the person doing the printing) microscopically
