This is a rather old thread, free fonts are available,
so there is no need to purchase a barcode font:

There are over 300 barcodes, some do require programming,
(or a program), but you can create barcodes with just a font.

look for topic:
Can Word, Access, Excel, or Clipper be used for an application
where bar codes can be scanned and printed?

also note as stated free fonts are available and that the
easiest True Type barcode font to use is Code 39.

A barcode font is sufficient - no programming needed and quality is
ensured. Take a look at www.morovia.com/font/support. Several samples
can be found there.
