<body> of the HTML, but outside other elements. Alternatively, use the Location drop-
down to select where to insert the Barcode.

Before element inserts it before the HTML element in which the cursor is currently
located. For example if the cursor is within a paragraph, the insertion point will be
before the <p> tag.*
l
After start tag inserts it within the current HTML element, at the beginning, just after
the start tag.*
l
Before end tag inserts it within the current HTML element, at the end, just before
the end tag.*
l
After element inserts it after the element in which the cursor is currently located. For
example if the cursor is within a paragraph, the insertion point will be after the end
tag of the paragraph (</p>).*
* If the current element is located inside another element, use the Elements drop-down to
select which element is used for the insertion location. The list displays every element in
the breadcrumbs, from the current selection point until the root of the body.

Under Script, select the field that contains the barcode value. The barcode type dictates
the length and exact format of the required value. For a detailed description or for
background information on a specific barcode, please refer to the documentation provided
by the individual barcode supplier. Note that some barcode readers may require specific
parameters as well.
If it is necessary to concatenate fields to compose the barcode value, edit the script after
adding the barcode; see "Barcode script" on the next page.
Note
For barcodes that require a Checksum, the Designer can calculate a Checksum if
that isn't provided by your data. In that case the field should contain the required
value minus the Checksum. To include a calculated Checksum in the barcode
value, edit the barcode properties after adding the barcode to the template; see
below.
