I just completed reports that we are using for BMV and found that the 3 of 9 barcode is significantly wider than the 128. I also have SIZE=X in the computed field attribute. This is working well for us. The difference is the 3 of 9 will have Data Type of BAR.CODE and the 128 will have CODE.128.
Hope this helps.

"Susan Mindler" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent by: [email protected] 03/12/2007 04:07 PM To <[email protected]> cc Subject [MEDITECH-L] pharmacy label-datamax m class c/s 5.5 sr2 I am working with my NPR person to create new Pharmacy labels to include bar codes for BMV. We have purchased a Datamax 4208 M class printer. We are testing a 3x1 continuous label, looking to go to a 3.5x1 continuous label. We copied our existing NPR label (which printed on a microline printer) and just added the bar code, adjusting for the # of lines/page. However, the font on our new label is smaller vertically than our existing label and the bar code is very small. Can anyone tell me how to increase the size of the font as well as the bar code size? I am only 6months in IT from lab and would really appreciate any advice you experienced folks can give me! =*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*= To subscribe or unsubscribe to the meditech-l, visit MTUsers.COM.
