Preferred version
Use the drop-down to select the size of the barcode, in a number of modules. The actual size of
the barcode can be 12 mm x 12 mm up to 22.4 mm x 22.4 mm, depending on the preferred
version and the module width.
Scale
Defines if and how the rendered barcode is scaled in relation to the parent element:
l
None: The barcode is rendered based on the module width.
l
Proportional: The barcode is stretched up to where it fits either the width or height of the
parent box, whichever requires the less stretching.
Color
The Color group 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).
When black is a composite of CMYK or RGB values, it may incur a color click charge on some
printers. Check the Output in Grayscale option to make sure that pure black is used.
Output format
l 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.
UPC-A, UPC-E, EAN-8, EAN-13
UPC-A, UPC-E, EAN-8 and EAN-13 are a few of the barcode types that can be added to a
template.
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176.
