The Font Panel

 

The Font panel is used to specify the font used for the 'human readable characters' (i.e. the numbers normally displayed below and/or sometimes above) the bar code.

There are seperate controls for the characters below the barcode (Code Font) and above the barcode (Label Font).

Label Font is used with ISSN and ISBN barcodes only.

By default, the font "OpticalBeta' is used for the Code Font. This font is included with the software and can be freely distributed. It is similar in appearance to the OCR fonts specified by most bar code specifications.

The Hide Human Readable checkbox can be used to switch off the human readable characters if required. The Label Font can be hidden by unchecking the Show Label box.
