 Thanks for the responses.
 What I'm really looking for is just a way to generate zip-codes - not 
 the entire UPC barcode paraphernalia.
 (It would have helped if I had done a little research before making my 
 first posting. Doh!)
 Back in the System 7 days I used to have an old Seiko label printer that 
 would automatically generate the Postnet zip-code on its own line when I 
 entered the zipcode numerals. but I've never been able to locate 
 ssoftware to run it on OSX  or XP.
 Some little FrameMaker plug-in like that would be nifty if it exists.

I think MS Word has a built-in zip bar coding function in the Labels  
Envelopes feature -- don't know if that helps in your workflow or not, 
but could be worth a try.

 Hi Framers -
 Anyone out in FrameLandia know of a barcode font? There doesn't   
 appear to be one in the usual Windoze offering (or I am not  
 looking  in the right places).
 Any advice appreciated.

 Uh, try googling barcode font?  You'll get about two million hits...

 HTH,
