That's a good question. I guess I don't really care, just setting up a
membership system for our gym that's opening soon. I used 39 I think it is,
printed it and scanned it, it worked. I feel a bit lost not knowing the ins
and outs but it works...

Subject: Re: [cfaussie] Barcode Generator

What barcode standard is it, Taco?   There are dozens of barcode
standards, depending on what they're to be used for, and many of them only
work if you have correctly calculated the check digit as the last
character.   I think barcode 3 of 9 is a simple font with no check
digit, so if you use that one,  you'll get a higher likelihood of a read
error, but to barcode 12345 you only need to output 12345 in the
Barcode3of9 font.  If you use any other barcode font, you'll need to
calculate the check digit or the reader wont accept the number as valid.
