A friend of mine has an IBM PC and is interested in printing bar codes (eg. UPC, etc....). Is there any code (preferably public domain) that does this on IBM compatible printers. Programs that work with the printer graphics would also be helpfull. Any information would be appreciated. --Kay Crowley-- Mail Stop 2158, UUCP: yale!Crowley-Kay Yale Station, ARPA: Crowley-Kay@CS.Yale.EDU New Haven, CT 06520 BITNET: Crowley-Kay@YaleCS.BITNET (203)-432-1254 FAX: (203)-432-0593

Try contacting Symbologic (17019 Jeanette Avenue, Cerritos, CA 90703,
213-926-2823). They offer a bar coding packing for $79 complete, no
royalties, UPC, EAN, CODABAR, Code39, Interleaved 2 of 5. Although I am
not a bar code expert this software seems to work.

It's not PD, but TimeKeeping Systems, Inc (12434R Cedar Road; Cleveland, OH 44106; (216) 229-2579; FAX: (216) 229-2573) has a small advertisement on page 462 of the May 30, 1989 PC Magazine (the test "every" 80386 PC issue). Among other things, they offer an "EZBarcode I Printing Program" for $49.00 which can "...print Code 39 and UPC-A ... for dot matrix and LasetJet printers..." and "EZBarcode II Printing Program" for $99.00 with more features including more coding formats. (Coincidentally, someone here at AT&T was directed to me just recently for essentially the same question which is why I even noticed it since I have no personal interest in barcode software.) regards, Larry -- Signed: Larry A.
