2022.1

Australia Post, Japan Post, KIX, USPS IMb
Australia Post, Japan Post, KIX and USPS IMb are some of the types of barcodes that can be
added to a template; see "Barcode" on page193.
In PrintShop Mail Connect versions prior to 2019.2 the USPS IMb barcode was called
"OneCode".
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194.
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... option in the context menu.
Note that barcodes of these types don't process tilde characters (~) in the data as special
characters.
