I am trying to create a barcode for a pre-sorted mailing using the font provided in FusionPro (IDAutomationState4) but the resulting barcode is only six or seven characters long - not the over 50 it should be. I have a field in my flat file that provides me with the barcode information. I tried inserting this field and applying the font and that didn't work. I tried creating the barcode rule in FusionPro using the Zip Code field and then the barcode field and that didn't work either. Can anyone tell me what I might
be doing wrong or leaving out?

Depends on how the data is formated in your barcode field. To use this font, all the data should be a string of '2','1','3', and '0' .

You may find that instead the data may be formated as 'D','A','T' and 'F'. If this is the case, you will need to write a rule to switch the characters, for example:

var onecode = "FATD"; //Replace "FATD" with Field ("YourOneCode")
  onecode = onecode.replace(/F/g,"0"); // replaces all F with 0
  onecode = onecode.replace(/A/g,"1"); // replaces all A with 1
  onecode = onecode.replace(/T/g,"3"); // replaces all T with 3
  onecode = onecode.replace(/D/g,"2"); // replaces all D with 2

  return onecode;

On the other hand, if you are building the barcode from raw data, like routing codes, sequence numbers, you will want to use the OneCodeBarcode Javascript function from FusionPro to format the data to make the barcode. Then apply the font.
