There are a couple of things to remember about printing barcodes on receipts. All printed barcodes have start and stop digits. These digits are not part of the number but must be part of the printed barcode. Printing barcodes will not work with out them.
The other major thing is that the barcode font you are using will need to be added on every computer that you are printing them at. OR the receipt printer cannot translate the barcode. <br/><!-- this prints the barcode of the patron at the bottom of the receipt.--> <div align="Center"; style= "font-family: 'CodabarMedium';">B{{patron.card.barcode}}D</div> <br/> .<br/> In the example above I use the font: CodabarMedium, and you will notice the “B” and “D” around the Patron’s barcode. ----------------------------- Lynn Floyd MIS Supervisor Indiana State Library 317-232-3290 lflo...@library.in.gov<mailto:lflo...@library.in.gov> From: Open-ils-general <open-ils-general-boun...@list.georgialibraries.org> On Behalf Of Lindsay Stratton Sent: Tuesday, June 9, 2020 10:04 AM To: open-ils-general@list.georgialibraries.org Subject: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Scannable barcode font in web client receipts **** This is an EXTERNAL email. Exercise caution. DO NOT open attachments or click links from unknown senders or unexpected email. **** ________________________________ Good morning, Is anybody using scannable barcodes in receipts in the web client? I had been using them in the past (XUL client) but after upgrading to the web client, creating new receipt templates did not seem to work. Currently running 3.4. There is interest in scannable barcodes to streamline contactless pick up services. Thanks!
