We, at Clancy Systems, are happy to pass on to you a True Type Font we have developed in-house.
View the documentation. You may print the document from your browser or download the document in Word format.
Follow these steps to install and use this bar code font.
Download the file and save the font to disk. (Out of order temporarily)
On your computer, click on start, settings, control panel, fonts - file, install new font - then click on the Code39.ttf file you downloaded.
Using any program, enter a string of characters - starting with an "*" and ending with an "*". Then change the font to Code 39 and the size to larger than 14. Most any bar code scanner will read the characters into almost all applications.
Note: Word for Windows treats a string beginning with an "*" and ending with an "*" as a command to bold the string. Turn this feature off in
- Tools (on the top menu bar)
- AutoCorrect (in the first pull down 5 down),
- AutoFormat as You Type (* to bold 5th choice down in second section)
- Uncheck the box.
