UPCE

Barcode functions and fonts are deprecated in PrintShop Mail 7.0 for Windows. We strongly advise using the Barcode Object instead.

Syntax

UPCE(Text)

Description

Calculates an UPCE barcode

Example

UPCE("123456")

Result

Parameter description

Text

Any text expression or data field containing a text to be represented by the barcode.

UPCE is ideal for small packages, because it is the smallest barcode available. This symbology contains the same information as UPCA, except that at least four zeros are suppressed.

The position and value of the digits is standardized by a grocery industry committee. UPCA and UPCE also allow two or five digit supplemental numbers.

UPCA and UPCE codes have an automatic checksum.

Only tags with the system character of 0 can be encoded with this symbology.
