Known Windows issues.
=====================
If you are using HP LaserJet 5 and default Windows 2000 Pro printer drivers and having a
printing problem then please download the newest drivers from HP, http://www.hp.com.
If you are using a monitor/display setting, monitor/display update frequency Hz, not recommended by Microsoft Windows XP, Barcode Maker will not be able to change the resolution to 256 colors to make a high resolution TIF barcode image. Please only use recommended monitor/display update frequency Hz.
If some of the digits in the barcode are missing and you have a nVidia graphics card installed on your computer, then please download the newest drivers from the manu factor or from the nVidia homepage.
If you get this message ...You must install a Windows service pack that contains a newer version of Installer service.
Does the barcodes scan ?
Yes.
How can I change Font ?
In the main window choose Edit then Barcode Size and then Edit in Barcode Size and then
Change Font. In Batch Barcode Maker you have to go to the Labels window to change fonts
for the barcodes that's going to be printed on labels.
The Bitmap (*.BMP) is only 72dpi or 96 dpi, can I change this resolution ?
Yes, Go to TIFF Parameters and enter the resolution you want 300 to 4800 dpi. Please note
that the max. resolution is 1200 dpi and it’s then multiplied by 4. If you can make a
4800 dpi or not depends on the amount of memory you have. TIF images can only be saved,
not added to the Barcode Image List. You can't change the Bitmap resolution only the on
for TIFF (*.tif). Only supported by Barcode Maker and Batch Barcode Maker. NOT supported
by EAN Barcode Maker and UPC Barcode Maker as they only support 96 dpi Bitmap (*.bmp)
Can I print on labels ?
If you need to print to labels then Batch Barcode Maker is the one for you.
Make Code or Add to List isn’t enabled, Why ?
Make Code isn’t enabled when you haven’t entered the right number of digits. EAN
13 needs 12 digits, ISBN need 13 (10 Digits and 3 - deviders), UPC A needs 11 digits, EAN
8 needs 7 digits, UPC E needs 7 digits, if you use 2 or 5 digit supplement then you will
also have to add these digits in the input box to the right. ISBN only supports 5 digit
supplement, it’s for the price tag so if you charge $39.99 then it’s 53399.
Please also make sure you have chosen the right barcode type.
Do you support Windows 3.xx or Mac?
No
Does it run in Windows 2000, Windows XP?
Yes, All my products run on Windows 95 or better.
I need a barcode but it’s not supported by any of your products, can you
help ?
Yes, let me know what you need and I will see what I can do.
I can’t fill in all the digits in then barcode, why ?
You don’t need to fill in the last digit as it’s the check character (check sum)
and is added automatically, it also depends on if you have selected the right barcode you
want to make e.g. EAN 13 or UPC A…….. (For Code 39, Code 2 of 5 Interl. the
check character is optional)
Where can I get a UPC code for my product ?
Uniform Code Council, Inc. 7887 Washington Village Drive, Suite 300 Dayton, OH 45459,
Phone 937-435-3870, Fax 937-435-7317 .
I only have 8 digits for a barcode, which is it ?
It can be a UPC E or a EAN 8, if you live in the U.S.A or the product is from the U.S.A
then I would guess it’s a UPC E else it might be a EAN 8.
Does your SCC-14 support both EAN/SCC-14 and UPC/SCC-14 ?
Yes, it supports both the EAN/SCC-14 and UPC/SCC-14.
The size for the barcode saved as a TIF isn’t the same size as the defined
barcode size, what to do ?
To make the Barcode saved as a TIF the same size as the defined barcode size, click on
Edit and the TIFF Parameters or click on this button you must check ‘’Adjust
Barcode Width to Defined Width’’ and also ‘’Adjust Barcode Height to
Defined Height’’.
If you have checked the option "Retain Aspect Ratio" in the Barcode Size window ( Edit menu > Barcode Ratio > Retain Aspect Ratio ) then the ‘’Adjust Barcode Width to Defined Width’’ and also ‘’Adjust Barcode Height to Defined Height’’ will no be available in the TIFF Parameters window.
