Code 39 Font Advantage Package Features
With this package you receive 24 different Code 39 fonts in 6 different font formats. You also receive the rights to use the font tools, macros and source code to help you integrate the fonts into your application. Details of the Font Advantage Package are as follows:
Easy to Use - our Code 39 fonts are easy to use in applications and can be entered directly from the keyboard. All barcodes require a start and stop character and these can also be entered from the keyboard. For example, to create a barcode that encodes the data "1234ABCD" with the Code 39 Font, you: (1) select the font from the list of fonts in your application; (2) type the start character, in this case it is "!"; (3) type the data, in this case it is "1234ABCD"; (4) type the stop character, in this case it is "!"; and then change the font back to the default font of your document. To determine which Code 39 barcode font to use, first print out the IDAutomationHC39M barcode font at 12 points and other font sizes to determine which size is the smallest that will work with your scanning equipment. Then, choose the tallest version that will fit in your scanning area. Please review the specifications to create barcodes from dimensions of which you are aware of.
Multiple Versions Provided - 24 different versions of the Code 39 barcode fonts are provided to support human readable versions and different width and height requirements. Fonts beginning with IDAutomationH are "human readable" versions. The last characters in the Code 39 barcode font name determines the height of the barcode, with the shortest being IDAutomationHC39XS and the tallest being IDAutomationHC39XXL. Because each single font can be printed at various point sizes, there are several combinations of heights and widths that can be produced. If you are not sure which one to use, we recommend IDAutomationC39M. For more information on this, refer to the specifications.
Font Tools and IDAutomation Fontware Included - if you need to calculate checksum characters for Code 39 (such as for HIBC LIC and LOGMARS), we provide the Code39Mod43() function for this purpose. We also provide a Code39() function which converts spaces to the "=" character and automatically adds the start and stop characters to the barcode font. The following tools are available:
Active Reports font library
Check digit calculation application with Visual Basic 6 and FoxPro source code
IDAutomation Crystal Reports Formulas to allow distribution of crystal reports without the UFL
Crystal Reports UFL (User Function Library)
DLLs for Windows#
FileMaker Pro Plug-ins
Foxpro Program Module
LotusScript Functions for Lotus Notes, Domino and Approach
Microsoft# Office Macros for Word, Excel and Access with VBA
Microsoft# Reporting Services
Oracle Reports Libraries and PLL
Source Code in Visual Basic, C++, PowerBuilder, FoxPro and JAVA
C# .NET Class Library
VB.NET Module
Star Office Add-in

Microsoft# Office Compatibility - the exclamation character or the asterisk in the Code39 barcode font is used as a start and stop character and therefore should not be part of the data in the bar code. For example, If you want to print the data "CODE39" in the Code 39 barcode font you would print !CODE39!. The asterisk "*" is commonly used as the start / stop character with Code 39, but this can cause problems because some applications such as MS Word will treat any text surrounded with asterisks as bold text.
Space Character Support - it is also important to note that when the Code39 barcode font is selected the space character will not produce a barcode but a space. To print the barcode symbol representing a space you will need to type or print "=" (the equal character) instead of a space character or use our Font Automation Tools to perform automatic conversion.
Industry Standard Support - the Code 39 fonts were developed according to AIM, ANSI and European EN 800 standards. The symbology of the Code 39 character set consists of bar code symbols representing characters 0-9, A-Z, the space character and the following symbols: - , . , $ , / , + , %. The start & stop symbol is obtained by choosing either "*" or "!".
Flexibility - you may also use the parentheses () instead of #!# or #*# as the start and stop code to eliminate the #*# from appearing in the human readable version of the fonts. The Code 39 barcode fonts should be printed at the correct font size to suit your application and scanning equipment. We have been able to obtain dependable scans in our lab when printing the Code 39 barcodes between 6 and 48 points.
Advanced Font Design - our advanced Code 39 fonts have been specially designed to be able to produce dependable and scannable barcodes when printed at very small point sizes as well as normal and large sizes. In our test lab, we have been able to dependably scan barcodes as small as 6 points with the IDAutomation SC5 USB Scanner. In addition, the IDAutomation Pug 'n Play USB Wand scans as small as 8 points and reads very wide barcode types.
Extended Character Support - it is possible to print extended characters from Code 39 to encode tabs, returns or lower case letters. For more information on this, view our extended code 39 page. If you need to encode the full 128 character ASCII character set in a barcode with over 15 digits of data, consider using our Code 128 fonts. Printing the full 128 character ASCII character set with Code 39 is not very efficient.
Low Resolution Printer Support - Our Code39 Fonts are designed to print precisely on 203 DPI thermal printers and 300 DPI printers in addition to higher resolution printers. When printing at 203 DPI, the point size chosen should be a multiple of 6. When printing at 300 DPI, the point size chosen should be a multiple of 4.
Calculated Field Use - Our Code39 fonts can be printed or displayed as calculated fields in applications by selecting the font for the field and using the following formula examples to calculate the field. Tabs and returns can be added (in extended39) between fields by inserting "$I" for a tab and "$M" for a return between fields as in the Lotus Notes barcode example:
Active Reports - enter Field1.Text ="*"&Field&"*" to create a barcode in the text field. See an example...
Clarion - loc:barcode='*'&left(clip(DataField))&'*'
Crystal Reports - enter "*" & Field & "*" in a calculated field.
FileMaker Pro - enter "*" & Field & "*" in a calculated field so that the asterisk is appended to the beginning and ending of the data from the source field. See an example...
Lotus Notes - a formula that places a return function (in extended39) between fields: "*" + DataField1 + "$M" + DataField2 + "*"
Lotus Approach - Combine('*', DataField, '*') - here is an approach formula that also replaces spaces with the "=" character as required: Combine('*', Translate(DataField,' ','='), '*')
Lotus 123 for Windows# - enter in another cell, text data from cell C3: ("*"&C3&"*") - this formula converts a number in cell C9 to text for barcoding: ("*"&@STRING(C9,0)&"*")
Microsoft# Access - =("!"&[Table.Field1]&"!") - this formula places a tab (in extended39) between fields: =("!"&[Table.Field1] & "$I" & [Table.Field2] & "!")
Microsoft# Excel - enter in another cell, text data from cell C3: =("!"&C3&"!")
Oracle Reports and Forms - place an asterisk before and after the data and then apply our barcode font to the field.
QuickBooks - refer to our QuickBooks Barcode Tutorial.
Multiple Formats Provided - when you purchase a license for this font, you will receive all versions in a single ZIP file. The manual is supplied in a file named "Readme.html" in the ZIP file. The following fonts are included:

Code 39 Symbology Information
Code 39, also called Code 3 of 9 is an easy to print barcode commonly used for various barcoding labels such as name badges, inventory and industrial applications. The Code 39 barcode is the easiest to use of alpha-numeric barcodes and is designed for character self-checking, eliminating the requirement for check character calculations. Code 39 is used for several standards including:
LOGMARS (Logistics Applications of Automated Marking and Reading Symbols) is an application of Code 39 used by the United States Department of Defense that recommends a check character. LOGMARS is defined by Military Standard MIL-STD-1189B and others such as MIL-STD-129, MIL-STD-129N and MIL-STD-2073-1C. The variety of fonts provided with the Code39 font package and our Code39Mod43() function in our font tools allows for implementation of this standard. In addition, you must verify that your printed Code 39 symbol meets the standard required for the project before production with LOGMARS.
HIBC (Health Industry Barcode) is a Code 39 barcode format that all health care products should be labeled with. Our 3 to 1 bar ratio in our Code 39 fonts and our Code39Mod43() function in our font automation tools allow for implementation of this standard also. Please refer to the HIBC site for details on formatting this barcode.
Code 39 Font Specifications and Font Name Descriptions
The X dimension (X is the width of the narrow bar) of our Code 39 font is listed below for various point sizes. The narrow to wide ratio is 3:1 which is recommended by international standards. We also offer the Universal Barcode Font Advantage# which is designed to support most linear barcodes as a single font on multiple operating systems and locales. This Universal Font can provide wide to narrow ratios of 2:1, 2.5:1 and 3:1.
Point Size
Approximate X dimension (1 mil = .001")
48 .157 CM .040"
36 .118 CM .030"
24 .078 CM .020"
20 .065 CM .016"
16 .052 CM .013"
12 .039 CM .010"
8 .026 CM .007"
6 .019 CM .005"
* To print at a different X dimension, find the point size that has the X dimension closest to what you need and use this formula to find the point size you need to print the font at:
12 * (X dimension you want) / (X dimension at 12 points) = (point size converted to integer)
For example, if you need an X dimension of 12 mils, you need to print it at 14 points because:
12 * 12 / 10 = 14
NOTICE: When using a printer with less than 600 DPI, you must print at the following point sizes to create accurate barcodes:
203 DPI Printer (thermal printer) 300 DPI Printer
6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36... 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36...
24 different versions of the Code 39 barcode fonts are provided to support human readable versions and different width and height requirements. The last character in the Code 39 barcode font name determines the height of the barcode with the shortest being "XS" and the tallest being "XXL". Because each single font can be printed at various point sizes, there are several combinations of heights that can be produced.
