Codabar Settings

Codabar barcodes support the following data: 0-9 - $ : / . + plus the optional specification of start/stop characters. 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.
  • Codabar Properties group:
    • Height: Enter the Barcode height in either metric (cm/mm), inch (in), pixel (px) or point (pt) values.
