Code 128 Font Advantage Package Features:

This Code 128 Font Advantage Package is much more than a package of fonts. The package includes over 18 different Code 128 fonts in 6 different font formats. You also receive the rights to use the Code 128 font tools, macros and source code to help you integrate the fonts into your application. Details of the Code-128 package are as follows:

Font Tools and IDAutomation Fontware Included - for easy integration into applications, we provide several font tools that are free to use with our fonts. Our font tools automatically format the start, stop and check characters to the barcode font. The following tools are included:
Patent Pending Technology - this product includes new patent pending font technology which allows extremely high quality barcode printing.
UCC/EAN-128 Support - when using our Code 128 fonts for UCC-128 or EAN-128 barcodes, every barcode must begin with a Start C character followed by a (fnc1) "function code one" character. Our Code128() function in our font tools provides an automated method for doing this by inserting an ASCII202 character for each AI represented. Additionally, when printed at 12 points our IDAutomationC128M font is specifically designed for UCC/EAN 128 barcodes where a size of 1/2 inch tall and an X dimension of 10 mils is required. Read more about how to encode UCC/EAN in our Code 128 FAQ. UCC-128 and EAN-128 are primarily used for distribution applications and serialized carton tracking.
Six Different Heights Provided - The Code 128 barcode fonts are scaleable and should be printed at the correct font size to suit your application and scanning equipment. In addition to using the point size to set the font width, six (6) versions of the Code 128 barcode fonts are provided to support different height requirements. The last characters in the Code 128 barcode font name determines the height of the barcode with the shortest being IDAutomationC128XS and the tallest being IDAutomationC128XXL.
Human Readable Versions - of the Code 128 fonts are also provided for character sets B and C with your order. Each of these is also supplied in the 6 different heights for a total of 18 different Code 128 fonts. The Code 128 human readable fonts all start with IDAutomationHC128 and include the letter "H" prior to a lower case letter specifying the character set. For example, the font "IDAutomationHbC128M.ttf" is a human readable for character set B with a font height of M for Medium. The human readable format is not as popular as the standard version because the check digit will also appear. It is recommended to print the data that is encoded directly below the barcode instead.
Industry Standards - Our Code 128 barcode fonts were created directly from AIM and ISO standards.
Low Resolution Printer Support - Our Code128 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.
USPS Support - when printed at 16 points, the IDAutomationC128L font will produce the exact dimensions for UCC/EAN Code 128 required by the USPS special services, which is a height of .75" and an X dimension of .013". For information about formatting USPS UCC/EAN128 barcodes with our products, refer to the USPS portion of the Code 128 FAQ.
Canada Post Support - when printed at 21 points, the IDAutomationC128L font will produce the dimensions required by the CANADA POST, which is a height of 1" and an X dimension of .017".
Easy Function Encoding Capability - Our fonts provide easy methods of encoding functions such as returns and tabs in the barcode.
Embeddable Functionality - the fonts included with the Developer License allow embedding. Our fonts may be embedded info PDFs, Word documents and other files that support embedding so users that do not have the fonts installed can still print the barcode.
Data Sheet & Implementation Examples - for more technical information about our Code 128 fonts such as dimension specifications, character set detail and calculating the check character, please review our Code 128 Font Data Sheet.
Multiple Language and Locale Support - in the event your system regional setting is not set to "English" or the 1252 Latin-1 codepage, these fonts support the following additional codepages in Windows: 1250 European, 1251 Cryllic, 1253 Greek, 1254 Turkish, 1255 Hebrew and 1256 Arabic. To obtain a font that works in any operating system, codepage and locale, we offer the Universal Barcode Font Advantage™, which creates Code 128 and many other barcodes with a single font.
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" in the ZIP file. The following fonts are included:
- TrueType fonts are supplied in PC and Macintosh format. The TrueType TTF fonts are compatible with Macintosh OS X and all versions of Microsoft Windows, including Pocket PC. Macintosh formatted MTT TrueType fonts are compatible with Macintosh System 7.1 and above.
- Symbol encoded TrueType fonts are provided in the "Symbol Encoded Fonts" folder of the package for applications that require these types of fonts.
- OpenType OTF fonts with PostScript outlines are provided. These are compatible with Windows? Macintosh OS X and other systems supporting the OpenType format.
- PostScript Type 1 fonts are supplied in binary, ASCII and Macintosh versions.
- Also included in this package are PCL laserjet soft fonts in 8, 12, 16, 20 and 24 points.
- With the purchase of a Developer License and a 1 year subscription of the Priority Support and Upgrade, we can convert fonts from this package to PCL 4, Xerox Metacode, XES, FNT, BDF, FON and AFP. More about this is provided here. The Developer License also grants you the right to convert our fonts to other formats as necessary including TrueDoc and OpenType.

- For the most up to date installation procedures for Macintosh, UNIX and other operating systems, please visit our Technical Support Site.

Code 128 Symbology Information::

Code128 is high density barcode that encodes numbers, symbols, uppercase and lowercase text as well as functions such as returns and tabs. It requires a checksum to be calculated and can be difficult to use as a font if you are not a technical user. If you do not use one of our Font Tools, the implementation of Code 128 as a bar code font can be difficult because it requires a checksum to be calculated. If you are not required to use Code 128 barcodes and you need an easy to use alpha-numeric barcode, consider our Code 39 barcode font which does not require checksums to be calculated. We also sell many barcode components that may be an easier implementation in applications such as Microsoft Access or Visual Basic because they automatically calculate the checksum and format the barcode.

Code 128 is a very high-density alpha-numeric symbology with 106 different printed barcode patterns. Each printed barcode can have one of three different meanings depending on which of the three character sets are used. Three different Code 128 start characters are available to tell the scanner which character set is being used. Code 128 is the barcode type used for USS Code 128, UCC-128, ISBT-128, EAN-128, EAN-14, SSCC-18 and SCC-14 specifications.
Code 128 is recommended for SISAC and SICI serialized carton tracking applications.
The Blood Bank industry is barcoding in Code 128 for ISBT 128 labels, for more information about this barcode, please visit the ICCBBA website.
Code 128 is now used to print USPS Special Services barcodes for services such as return receipts and delivery confirmations on US Mail.
Code 128 can also be used for EAN-14, UCC-128 and EAN-128 barcode applications such as the UCC/EAN-128 symbols and data structure for SSCC-18 and SCC-14. When using Code 128 fonts for this purpose, every barcode must begin with a Start C character followed by a (fnc1) "function code one" character. Our Code128() function in our font tools provides an automated method for doing this by inserting an ASCII202 character for each AI represented.UCC-128 and EAN-128 are primarily used for distribution applications and serialized carton tracking.
The Global Trade Item Number (GTIN), or sometimes known as EAN14, is the product identification structure in the EAN/UCC system. The GTIN is a 14 digit fixed length numeric, including the indicator digit (or logistic variant), the EAN/UCC company prefix, item reference and check digit. When using the EAN128 symbology, you will need to append the data with the Fnc1 character and application identifier of 01. For more information about how to create the GTIN, please visit the UC-Council.
UCC/EAN Code 128 "SSCC-18" must always be used with a FedEx Ground bar code. FedEx publishes a FedEx Ground Multicode SM Barcode Label Guide that can be access at their website. You should always refer to their barcode and label layout specification guide for your application.
Our Code128 barcode font was developed according to ANSI and European (CEN) standards. The complete printed Code 128 barcode consists of a leading quiet zone, a start pattern that selects the character set, Code 128 symbols representing data, the check character to ensure data integrity, a stop pattern and a trailing quiet zone. According to ANSI specifications, the quiet zones must be 10 times the width of the short bar in the barcode.
