MSI / Plessey Barcode Symbology Information:
The MSI Plessey barcode was designed in the 1970s by the Plessey Company
in England and has been used primarily in libraries and retail
applications.
The symbology of the MSI Plessey character
set consists of bar code symbols representing the numbers 0-9, the start
character and the stop character. In the MSI Plessey font, the parentheses
are used for start and stop characters.
Printing the MSI Plessey barcode requires the calculation of a check
digit which makes it a difficult font to use for non-programmers or users
that do not implement our font
automation tools. If you
are not a programmer and you need an easy to use numeric barcode, consider our
Codabar Barcode Font which does not require checksums to be calculated. If your application supports ActiveX in Windows, we also sell easy to use
"drag and drop"Linear
ActiveX Controls that support MSI Plessey as well as other barcode
types and they automatically calculate the checksum.
MSI Plessey Barcode Font Advantage Package Features:
Tools Provided - to help users integrate barcode fonts into their applications, we provide font
automation tools with our fonts that include MS
Office Macros for Word, Excel and Access, Visual
Basic, FoxPro, ANSI C
and JAVA Source Code, ActiveX
DLLs for development platforms that support Microsoft's ActiveX / COM technology,
Crystal
Reports User Function Libraries (UFLs) and a check

and code provided automatically format the start, stop and check
characters to the barcode font.
Versions Provided - The MSI Plessey barcode fonts are scaleable and should be printed at the correct font size to suit your application and scanning equipment.
The MSI font is designed to be printed from 6 to 18 points.
Four (4) versions of the MSI Plessey barcode fonts are provided to support different width and height requirements.
Fonts beginning with IDAutomationHMSI are "human readable" versions.
The last characters in the MSI Plessey barcode font
name determines the height of the barcode with the shortest being
IDAutomationMSIXS and the tallest being
