Barwidth
parameter
This setting defines the
size (lines and spaces separations) of the barcodes that the
report will use.
There are three predefined values and each one has its own application.
- 1 (default) Will
print the barcodes using the minimum size. It will be
recommended for laser printers.
- 2 This setting will
print the barcodes using a medium size and it's
recommended for inkjet printers.
- 3 This setting will
use the maximum size and will be recommended for dot
matrix printers.
Setting a personalized width
Additionally, is possible to specify the width of the barcode
more efficiently. Numbers greater than 3 specify the separation in twips.
Using this method, barwidth=10 will be the equivalent to barwidth=1 giving more
possibilities.
Example:
BARWIDTH=2
This example shows how to
define to print the medium size of the barcodes (recommended for
inkjet).
It is important
to remark that three shown barcodes mean the same.
Observe then that depending of the printer that you will
use is the size of the barcode and remember that the
width of the barcode is proportional with the number of
characters that you want to represent with it. |
