Gs1-128 Print-Out Problem
Good afternoon to all the members,
I'm new to this forum and i would like to ask your help for some issues that i'm facing at the company that i work for.
We use CABA4+ 200dpi and CABA6+ 200dpi, and we are trying to print ITF14 barcodes on labels according to the GS1 Standard. We are trying to have a barcode with 0.70 of Magnitude.
A 0.70 means white bands of 7,10mm on both sides, bar height of 22,30mm and width of 105,9mm.
But we can't get this on the BarTender 9.4.
We use Windows XP - service Pack 3.
How can we try to get these kinds of dimentions?
Hope that you can all help me.
regards,
Paulo

The default settings of the ITF-14 standard are already implemented in BarTender. If you wish to modify the width of the barcode (you won't have any problem modifying the height) it would mean to modify the density and the X dimension:
When talking about barcodes, the X dimension refers to the width of the narrowest unit in a barcode. A single X dimension is commonly referred to as a "module". Wider elements in the barcode (typically, bars or spaces in the barcode) are then measured as multiples of the X dimension. Therefore, the X dimension correlates directly with the overall width of the barcode.
The X dimension is used to determine the density of a barcode, which defines how many characters can be encoded per inch of barcode. When you decrease a barcode's X dimension, you increase its density; furthermore, if you increase the X dimension, you effectively decrease its density.
These two settings (density and X simension) depend directly on the dpi of the printer in use as this value of the printer will mark the narrowest unit in the barcode (that's why when you try to modify the X dimension it "jumps" between values (basically doubles the narrowest unit as a thermal printer can't print halve a unit).
One workaround to get a certain width value would be to use a laser printer instead of a thermal one, create the barcode (it won't "jump" when modifying the width), export that barcode as an image and import it to your label using the thermal printer. *Note that this might cause the barcode to be unreadable.0
