6.We have now defined our bar code: The font number to use in design is 4700, the barcode is 40 dots high, with a narrow bar width of 3 dots. InterForm400® automatically creates a soft font called CODE128xxx, where ‘xxx’ is numbered in the sequence ‘AAA’-‘ZZZ’. This soft font will be downloaded and used when printing in font number 4700.

7.After you have pressed Enter you can now edit the font number (4700) if needed. From the ‘Work with fonts’ menu select option ‘1. Description of additional fonts’ and ‘2=Change’ to edit the details of font number 4700:
