- I am looking for documentation on the generation and placement of
- postal barcodes on letters. There was a recent article in PC Magazine
- along with a utility for printing mailing labels with barcodes.
- Unfortunately I threw it away. I have the basic formula and found
- a TrueType font for printing the barcodes. That all works fine but
- I want to make sure they are in the correct location on the label.
- A pointer to an ftp site would be great otherwise some source of hard
- copy would be okay.
-
- BTW TrueType for DOS works great with MS Word for DOS. I have printed
- the barcodes with both WinWord and Word 5.5, landscape and portrait.
