Hello,
I am having issues printing barcode labels using a zebra printer.
first, the label size is very small 1.5in wide X4in.
for the label to be useful, the barcode needs to be arranged
landscape/horizontal, so
it can be read while attached to bottles etc.
I have used fonts: code39quaterinchtt, idautomationhc39m, wasp39 L, and wasp
39LC. All of these fonts work in the vertical direction, not in the
horizontal as needed. In addition since the label is very small the font
sizes needs to be small as well. The scanner isn't reading fonts smaller than
11/12.

my questions:

do you know of a code that can adjust the narrow width or ratio of the lines
within the barcode?
or, are there small barcode fonts that can be downloaded/purchased to get the
job done?

thanks

if you are printing very small barcodes on thermal printers, barcode
font is usually not a good choice because it can't match pixels
exactly. You might want to give Morovia Barcode ActiveX Lite a try -
only $129 as far as I know.

Product web site: http://www.morovia.com/activex/barcode-lite.asp

It includes an Access Report example.
