Hm ... Ok thanks .. I didn't know it is only a font.. I got it ..thanks ... And what about ean 13.. Is there a font for it
 
hm.. i tried 39 font but it didn't work , it might that my barcode scaner didn't recognize the type .. i'll try again in another one ...
at the moment i need to explore possibilites before i decide what to buy.. so i neded some simple code for free to see what exactly i will need in the future... any way thanks for your advice
 
To use the 39 bacode:

Be sure to add an asterisk * character before and after your text.

Example *YOURTEXTHERE*

Did you do this when testing?

Note:WASP has a trail version!
 
it works now ... thanks a lot... i didn.t use asterix before
one more question:
how many caracters a can use in code 39 , or it is unlimited

I think it depends on your reader, so long as the your reader can scan the length of the barcode, it shouldn't really matter about number of characters.

If you have a reader, go into word and create a variety of barcodes and test it out. If you don't, the one I use is Opticon OPR2001 using USB input and its quite fast and durable. It also allows you to programme it anywhere using the online software utility.
