Our MSI/Plessey Barcode Font Package
allows you to print MSI/Plessey symbols. The installation
program supports Windows platform, but the font is
designed for use on Windows, Macintosh, UNIX and other
Postscript platforms. If you own a valid license and need
to use the Postscript font on other platforms, we will be
glad to provide you for free.
Unlike the fonts supplied by other vendors, Morovia MSI/Plessey font package not only includes the true type font file, but also complete documentation, source code and free font tools. The font package does not just include one font file, it actually contains 10 true type fonts, allowing you easily choose the one best suitable for your application.
The package contains the following 10 true type font files. In addition to these ten true type font files, we also provide Font Tools for you to integrate our barcode fonts with applications.

The number in parenthesis is height for
these fonts with underlying text.
The measure unit for font height is inch (1inch
=2.54cm).
CPI - Characters Per Inch. When calculating the actual
length, you need count the two start/stop
characters
The height refers to the actual bar height, not the
height of the font when rasterized. The font is scaled
both in horizontally and vertically, to calculate the
size under a different point size, use formula:
(size_at_12_pt)*actual_point_size/12.
Special Character Mapping
The start/stop characters are mapped to asterisk (*). In XSA, SA, MA, TA and XTA fonts, [ and ] are also mapped to start/stop characters but without underlying text.
To assist customers to integrate Morovia font products with their applications such as Microsoft Office and web, we provide free tools including Morovia FontPal, language tools for Visual Basic, C/C++, JavaScript and so on.
