In addition to Intelligent Mail barcodes for addresses, you can also create labels that include barcodes based on many other barcode formats or types. You can choose from Code 39 (also called "Code 3 of 9"), Code 128, Interleaved 2 of 5, UPC, EAN, UCC/EAN 128, ITF-14, Codabar, QR, and PDF417 barcode types.
You can add barcodes that display a fixed piece of information or you can link a barcode to another piece of information on the label. You can link a barcode to a Counter, Text, or Address object so that the barcode reflects the contents of that object.
For example, if you link a Text object that contains a part number to a barcode designed to encode the part number, the barcode will encode the number entered in the Text object. If you change the part number in the Text object, the barcode will automatically update to reflect the change.
To add a barcode
Double-click Barcode.
A new Barcode object is added to your label. By default, the object contains a Code 39 barcode with fixed data.
