IMPB

IMPB is one of the barcode types that can be added to a template; see Barcode.

The barcode can be added either using the Barcode toolbar button or through selecting Insert > Barcode on the menu; see Adding a Barcode.

Initially the barcode will have the barcode type's default properties. To change those properties, such as the scale and color, open the Barcode properties dialog: right-click the barcode (on the Design tab in the Workspace) and select the barcode type on the shortcut menu.

Barcode properties

This topic lists the properties of the barcode type IMPB. For the properties of other barcode types, see Barcode type and properties.

Color

The Color group allows you to choose a different Barcode color (instead of black) and Background color (instead of white), by typing a hexadecimal color value (see for example w3school's color picker).

When black is a composite of CMYK or RGB values, it may incur a color click charge on some printers. Check the Output in Grayscale option to make sure that pure black is used.

Output format

• Defines how the barcode is output on the page. There are two possible formats:

• SVG: Vector format. This is smaller in size, but not compatible with Email output.

• PNG: Binary rasterized format. This is slightly larger than SVG but will display properly in Email output.
