Default BARCODING WITH EXCEL USING FONTS ALREADY IN EXCEL

To print bar codes, you will need a barcode font. There are some available
free on the web if you search.

Just a hint: most barcode readers require you to type an asterisk (*) before
and after the number when you print your barcode label. So, for example item
1234567 would need to print as:
*1234567*

Good luck,

Heidi

programmed to use a font already in the computer?
