Barcode width

rbuser

Hi, I am new to barcode label printing.
How can I fix the width of a barcode label?
Say, I want to print barcode on a 30mm width label,
but as the data.text length increase, the barcode overshot
30mm.

TIA
Gian

Hi Gian,

set 'Autosize' to 'False'.

The problem with setting the autosize property to False and setting the size
manually is that sometimes the barcode doesn't print correctly. The end is
cut off and then you can't scan it.

Any ideas on how to do this properly?

Eg. A Code128 barcode when set to autosize is 5cm so, you set autosize to
false and set the width to 3cm? The end of the barcode is missing.

Hi Justin,

you have to adjust the 'Bar width' in the barcode configuration dialog.

Please see the TppBarcode help topic in the RBuilder.hlp file to view all
constraints and boundaries for each type of barcode supported by
ReportBuilder. This should help you design the size you need.
