Hi =?Utf-8?B?Sm9obg==?=,

I can do it in a n evelope set up, but not in a full-page setup.

Simplest is to set up the envelope, too, then select and copy the
barcode to the full-page document, and close the envelope without
saving.

It's a question of inserting the barcode field from Insert > field

I did, using instructions off microsoft web site.
It appears like the field is not reading the zip code.
The notice is "No Zip code", so obviously I am missing something.

There's a sample envelope available for download from my web site which
shows the syntax.
