Interleaved 2 of 5 Settings

Interleaved 2 of 5 barcodes are also known as "ITF" and "2/5 Interleaved". It is a numeric only barcode whose data must contain an even number of digits, as the barcode uses sequences of two digits interleaved with each other to create a single symbol. If the numeric data contains an odd number of digits, then a leading zero must be added to the beginning of the data.

Use the following options to configure the output Barcode settings:

  • Position group:
    • Orientation: Use the drop-down to select the orientation of the Barcode added to the page.
    • Output once per sheet: Option relates to Imposition (also known as N-Up) printing. Select this box to have the Barcode printed once per sheet rather than once per document page.
      If Imposition options such as auto-positioning and scaling were selected, these options won't apply to the Additional Content added to the physical N-Up sheet.
    • Left: Enter the distance between the left margin of the page and the Barcode, in either metric (cm/mm), inch (in), pixel (px) or point (pt) values.
    • Bottom: Enter the distance between the bottom margin of the page and the Barcode, in either metric (cm/mm), inch (in), pixel (px) or point (pt) values.
  • Interleaved 2 of 5 Properties group:
    • Height: Enter the Barcode height in either metric (cm/mm), inch (in), pixel (px) or point (pt) values.
    • Module Width: Specifies the width of the narrow bars. Changing this value to higher value will generally make the Barcode bigger.
    • Bar width ratio: Set the Barcode bar width.
    • Print human readable text: Check to add a textual version of the Barcode data.
      • Placement: Use the drop-down to select whether to place the human readable text above or below the Barcode.
      • Font name: Use the drop-down to select the font with which to display the human readable text.
      • Font size: Enter a font size for the human readable text.
  • Text: Enter the text used to generate the Barcode.
    • Add button: Click to display a list of variable data that can be added to the Barcode. This includes metadata fields added in the Metadata Options, as well as some information fields.
  • Condition: Enter the condition which determines whether or not the Barcode will be added to the document at print time. For details on how to create a conditional, see the How to Set Conditionals page.
    • Add button: Click to display a list of metadata fields, information fields to add, or common expressions to the condition.
