Custom PCL Barcode Fonts for Laser Printers

We will create custom PCL barcode fonts to precisely match your size requirements within a single printer dot (1/600th of an inch). In addition to size, we can adjust other font characteristics, including the PCL selection parameters. This can be especially helpful in situations where font selection commands are embedded in software and cannot be easily modified; we can create a font that will respond to your existing code.

A custom font can help you print the barcodes you need accurately and efficiently, with a minimum of change to existing software... and it can help insure consistency of barcodes across large organizations while keeping down costs.

Size: we can adjust the height, width, and ratios of the bars to virtually any size in increments of one printer dot (0.00167 inch).
Symbologies: Code 39, Code 128, Interleaved 2 of 5, Retail (UPC/EAN), and Postal (USPS Postnet and Planet)
Font Identification: We can customize the font identification and selection characteristics to meet your needs.
Character mapping: Several character mappings are available for compatibility with various legacy systems.
