MicrosoftWord automatically adds an "End of Line" character when the Enter key is pressed after each line. If this additional character becomes encoded into the barcode, you may encounter problems scanning this barcode.

To overcome the problem, simply set the font back to a normal font (e.g. Arial or Verdana) after the barcode characters. This way, the End Of Line character will be shown as "space". As shown in the diagram above, simply select the last character in the second barcode and change the font back to Arial. The End Of Line character will not be encoded as part of the barcode.


The free Code 39 font may be used for personal use, educational purposes, and by organizations that have a gross annual revenue of less than $500,000 USD or are classified as nonprofit for tax purposes. For complete license details, review the free product section of the Software License Agreement. The free Code 39 barcode font is only supplied in one size, with the 3:1 ratio, and without product support; if more sizes or support are needed consider the licensed version of the Code 39 Barcode Font Package.




To generate a Code 39 barcode from a font, the data to encode is to be surrounded by asterisks as the start and stop characters, i.e. *153969*. To hide the asterisks from appearing in the human-readable below the barcode, use the parenthesis surrounding the data, i.e.(12345). If the font is not in the font selection list of the application after installation, check the application settings. Most applications allow the ability to disable a feature that lists the font names in the fonts list. For example, if the font is not in the Microsoft Office fonts list, follow these steps:


If a higher-density barcode is required, considerCode 128 or a 2D barcode such as QR Code or DataMatrix for something that can withstand damage and still scan correctly. The licensed version of the Code 39 font also includes fonts with a 2:1 ratio of width to make the symbol narrower.


Code 39 is one of the most common barcodes in use today, and thus virtually every barcode scanner will be capable of reading Code 39. When using a printer with less than 600 DPI, the following point sizes should be used to create accurate barcodes:


The free Code 39 barcode font is only supplied in one size. In the Licensed Code 39 Font Package, several versions of the fonts are provided to support human-readable versions in addition to different height and width requirements, including a narrow 2:1 ratio version. The last character in the font name determines the height of the barcode with the shortest being "XS" and the tallest being "XXL".


I've finally figured out how to create a barcode in Excel, but my POS won't read it. I've adjusted the size and It still isn't reading. I don't know if I'm doing something wrong, but I attempted to work w/ tech support and was told that "Here there is no issue with the application, it is the issue with the formula related issue which is out of our support boundary." I'm wondering if it is the type of font that I chose to use for the barcode? Is that a possibility? The only formula that I've seen to use is ="*"&A2&"*". If someone could assist me I would greatly appreciate it.


DisplayBarcode is used to insert a standard bar code into a document. It supports 10 different types of barcode. Depending on the one you choose, the barcode type accepts alphanumeric data of different formats and lengths. As a field code, you can right-click and choose Toggle field codes to go between the code and the barcode image. See the example for several types of barcodes. For the specification, see 3.1.3.2.7 DISPLAYBARCODE.


It appears that you are encountering issues with using the DISPLAYBARCODE field in a Word 365 Mail Merge template to generate barcodes that can be read by a scanner, specifically for medication information in QR or CODE39 formats. If the scanner successfully reads barcodes from other sources but not those generated using Word's DISPLAYBARCODE field, it may be related to how Word is rendering the barcodes.


Remember that barcode generation and scanning can be sensitive to various factors, and compatibility issues can occur. It is essential to ensure that both the barcode generation in Word and the scanner settings align correctly for the best results.


The Code 39 font is the easiest barcode symbology to use in Microsoft Office. Creating the barcode is as simple as appending the data with the start and stop characters of an asterisk (*) or exclamation point (!).


Check characters are used in high-density barcodes so that scanners can verify the barcode was properly read. Self-checking fonts such asCode 39 and Codabar have checking code built-in so that the calculation of check characters is not required. Self-checking fonts are easy to use in Microsoft Access and may be entered directly from the keyboard. If these self-checking barcode fonts cannot be used, refer to the Access Barcode Integration Guide for proper product suggestions.


If a non-self-checking, high-density barcode is preferred, IDAutomation providesfont encoders such as VBA Macro Functions that can be utilized in conjunction with IDAutomation fonts to automatically format the start, stop and check characters to the barcode fonts.


Self-checking barcode fonts such asCodabar (numbers) andCode 39 (numbers and uppercase letters) are the easiest to use in Excel when encoding numbers and/or uppercase letters. Self-checking fonts have checking code built-in so that the manual calculation of check characters is not required. If these self-checking barcode fonts cannot be used, refer to the Excel Barcode Integration Guide for proper product suggestions.


IDAutomation's barcode fonts provide an easy method of barcoding an entire Excel column. Code 39 barcodes are created in an Excel spreadsheet in this example, with the IDAutomationC39 font that is included in theCode 39 Barcode Font Package. Codabar fonts may also be used to create smaller numeric-only barcodes. For fonts other than Codabar and Code 39, refer to IDAutomation's VBA Macro Tutorial for Microsoft Office or theBarcode Integration Guide for Excel.


Many sites on the web would like to make you pay for working barcode fonts. At BarcodesInc we give them to you for free. This font is not crippled or limited or anyway. It is not shareware that expires or asks for money. It is freeware. Currently, we only offer a Code 39 (AKA Code 3 of 9) free barcode font for download, but we will continue updating this page with fonts that included different symbologies (Code 128, Codabar, Postnet, etc.). Please contact us if you know of any free (working) fonts that should be added to this page.


The barcode functionality lets you convert an alphanumeric value in a report dataset into a barcode on a generated report. The functionality is provided by the Barcode module of the System Application. The module includes the objects and tools that you need to add barcodes to reports. This section provides a brief overview of the Barcode module. For more information about the module, see the BCApps repository.


There are two key components involved in barcodes: the barcode provider and the barcode encoder. A barcode provider includes a library of different barcode fonts and symbologies available for use in reports. Barcode encoders are the components of the provider that encode the data strings of a report dataset to a specific font specification and symbology.


The Barcode module provides an API that lets you create custom barcode providers and encoders for one-dimensional and two-dimensional fonts. The API consists of several public objects, including:


With Business Central online, the IDAutomation fonts are automatically available as part of the service. So you can start adding barcodes to reports right away. For a description of the available fonts, see Barcode Fonts with Business Central Online.


For Business Central on-premises, you'll have to purchase and install the barcode fonts. If you choose the IDAutomation fonts, you can use the same built-in providers and encoders as Business Central online - without making any changes. Or, you can purchase fonts from other providers, then use the API to create custom barcode providers and encoders.


You don't need the barcode fonts installed on the computer you're using when developing a report and its layouts. Without the font, the report won't show the barcode. But if you then test the report, for example in an online sandbox, it will be shown on the report.


The following code shows an example report that displays the No. field of the Item table as a barcode. The first example uses the Code 39 one-dimensional font from the built-in IDautomation barcode provider. The example generates both a Word and RDL layout. The second example shows how you to do the same for a QR-Code two-dimensional barcode.


When done modifying the report or report extension objects, build the project to create the layout documents. Then create the report layouts as usual (see Creating an Word Layout Report or Creating an RDL Layout Report).


You can use Microsoft Report Builder or modify the XML of .rdl file directly from Visual Studio Code. In Microsoft Report Builder, right-click the barcode column control, select Text Box Properties > Font.


When modifying a report layout for production environment, it's important that the font you specify is installed on the Business Central service. Otherwise, the barcode won't display correctly on the report. So for Business Central online, be sure to specify a purchased font name (like IDAutomationHC39M); not an evaluation font name (like IDAutomationSHC39M Demo). For more information, see Font versions and names.


With Business Central on-premises, you'll have to install the barcode fonts on the computer that runs the Business Central Server. As a minimum, you must install the fonts for the user that runs the Business Central Server instance, that is, the service account. It's easiest just to install the font for all users.
