Symbology and Size Property Page |
The Symbology and Size property page, located on the Barcode Properties dialog, allows you to specify exactly how you want a barcode to display on your template. The available options define the size, color, and symbology specifications for a number of supported barcode standards.
The Symbology and Size property page contains a dynamic area, called Symbology Specific Options, which displays different options depending on the barcode symbology you select. For example, if the Symbology is set to "Interleaved 2-of-5," the only symbology-specific option that will be displayed is Check Digit. However, if the Symbology option is set to "Code 128," the symbology-specific area will also display the GS1-128 (UCC/EAN-128) and Code Set options.
