Whilst http://user.services.openoffice.org may (currently) tolerate LO posts, certainly LO/TDF should prefer to not continue to send users/prospective users to OOo properties for support and answers regarding LO.

Your IT department should be less twitchy about deploying a font than a full fledged graphic editing program. You could then add a barcode style in your doc with 90 or 270 degrees rotation.
