Re: Producing Barcodes





Without knowing exactly what error you get, here's the code I use to  
create barcodes with Barcode...

make barcode with properties {type:barcodeType, Size:barcodeMag,  
height:barcodeTrunc, bwr:barcodeBWR, data:barcodeNumber, options:"",  
colour:"0 0 0 100", saved:"eps", saveto:barcodePath}

Note: also specify 'saveto'. I've never had a problem with creating  
barcodes.

Where do you get the error?

Simon
