Bar code 128 can be printed from Windows using TrueType fonts, including subsets A, B, C, EAN128, SCC-14, SSCC-18, and Autosense. Both standard and human-readable formats are available, and users can print sheets of labels or export barcodes as images. The Bar128 utility program enables the use of macros in Excel and Access.

Designed for high density alphanumeric work, this font set includes all subsets of bar code 128, including A, B, C, Autosense, EAN128, SCC-14, and SSCC-18. Subsets A and B let you encode the full ASCII character set, while subset C is used for ultra high density numeric work. SSC-14 and SSCC-18 are used on shipping containers.
This barcode package includes both standard (barcodes only) and human readable (barcodes with text or numbers below) versions of barcode 128. Each of these scalable bar code fonts comes in six different aspect ratios, allowing you to vary the height and width of the bars independently. This makes it possible to print barcodes with the same height but different bar thickness.
With this software, you can print your own barcodes on your documents and packaging, or print sheets of labels with bar code 128 using the Bar128 utility. Additionally, the program can export your bar code as a gif, jpg, or png. If you're looking to print barcodes in Access or Excel, the included Visual Basic macro functions can do all the work for you.
For those who are unfamiliar with bar codes, simply run the Bar128 utility program included in this package to build barcodes for you. The download version includes a manual in pdf format that's compatible with any Windows word processor.
With six subsets, alpha-numeric encoding (subsets A and B), numeric encoding (subset C), and required checksum, this barcode set is comprehensive and effective. Keep in mind that it requires a laser or inkjet printer with at least 300 dpi resolution. Overall, if you're looking for a reliable way to print barcodes from Windows, this bar code set is definitely worth considering.
