OneCode, KIX Code, Royal Mail, Australia Post
OneCode, KIX Code, Royal Mail and Australia Post are some of the types of barcodes that can
be added to a template; see "Barcode" on page470.
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471.

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.
