They don't *need* to :) they *want* to Because you get a bulk mailer discount if you do, and you sort it, and its 500 pieces or larger. Something like that. We just did it. Personally they probably spent more to program it then they'll ever see in savings. Ha.

The USPS has provided specifications for encoding the zip codes into the format needed to print the IMb. https://ribbs.usps.gov/intelligentmail_mailpieces/documents/tech_guides/SPUSPSG.pdf (The encoding specifications begin in section 3.2, page 4.) The ideal solution would be for us to add a call from our UniBasic bill print program to a subroutine that performs the necessary steps to encode the zip codes into the IMb format. Has anyone already written a program that does the encoding? They are running UniData 6.0.12, SB+ 5.2.4 on Windows Server 2003. _______________________________________________ U2-Users mailing list [email protected] http://listserver.u2ug.org/mailman/listinfo/u2-users _______________________________________________ U2-Users mailing list [email protected] http://listserver.u2ug.org/mailman/listinfo/u2-users
