Hello.

How do I insert barcodes (EAN13, for example) into OO document
(specifically, in Writer)?


As for postal barcodes: acquire and install the necessary font and then set up a macro or some other means of generating the required encoded character strings.


Postal codes using POSTNET fonts are in the user guide see
http://documentation.openoffice.org/manuals/OOo2.x/user_guide2_draft.pdf
along with some suggested sources.

http://www.ooomacros.org/user.php#116469 has a macro to assist in
barcode insertion. You can reach ooomacros and other sites from
http://documentation.openoffice.org/thirdparty.html
A quick google search for EAN13 fonts for free gave
Results 1 - 50 of about 187,000 for EAN13 font free. (0.26 seconds)
I also found this site, which explains the encoding and provides macros for OOo and a free EAN13.ttf font download created by the web page author.
