Output format
Defines how the barcode is output on the page. There are two possible formats:
l
SVG: Vector format. This is smaller in size, but not compatible with Email output.
l
PNG: Binary rasterized format. This is slightly larger than SVG but will display properly in
Email output.
MaxiCode
MaxiCode is one of the barcode types that can be added to a template; see "Barcode" on
page413.
The barcode can be added either using the Barcode toolbar button or through selecting Insert
> Barcode on the menu; see "Adding a Barcode" on page413.
Initially the barcode will have the barcode type's default properties. To change those properties,
such as the scale and color, open the Barcode properties dialog: right-click the barcode (on the
Design tab in the Workspace) and select the barcode type on the shortcut menu.
Barcode properties
This topic lists the properties of the MaxiCode barcode. For the properties of other barcode
types, see "Barcode type and properties" on page415.
Resolution
Select the printer output definition for the barcode (200, 300, 400, 500 or 600 dpi).
Mode
PlanetPress Connect supports several modes; for an explanation of these modes see the
MaxiCode page on Wikipedia.
Color
The Color property allows you to choose a different Barcode color (instead of black) and
Background color (instead of white), by typing a hexadecimal color value (see for example
w3school's color picker).
