Defining barcodes for Zebra printers

Barcodes for Zebra printers are defined as barcodes for PCL printers with these deviations:

a)Barcodes are interpreted directly on the printers making soft fonts unnecessary for this purpose. You just specify a font number and use that for remap windows in overlay design. (Use option '11. Description of ZEBRA fonts' on the font menu).

b)For most barcodes you are prompted for a barcode with in dots. This is to be specified for both Zebra203 (200 DPI = 200 Dots Per Inch) and Zebra300 (300 DPI). If you want a barcode to have the same width in both 200 DPI and 300 DPI you should define the width for Zebra203 to be 2/3 of the value for Zebra300. The width is measured in dots. See page 292.
