[comp.sys.ibm.pc] Program For Printing US Mail Route Barcodes?

ries@venice.SEDD.TRW.COM (Marc Ries) (02/22/90)

   I've looked over most of the "under $100" envelope printing programs
   and mail list printing programs but have not seen any that print the
   US Mail routing "barcodes" that you now see on a number of
   envelopes.

   On the other hand, I haven't seen any "expensive" programs that do
   it either.  Is there such a program, or am I just blowing in the wind?

Shouldn't be at all difficult for the vendors to implement, considering that
it is a straight-forward 2-of-5 barcode.  There are lots of barcode printing
programs that handle that format....
