How to Insert a Dynamic Barcode

Top Previous Topic Next Topic  Print this topic

Dynamic Barcodes are barcodes which contain encoded values obtained directly from the data source or values that are applied conditionally. For example, a company may want to generate invoices that are to be delivered by mail in two separate geographic regions. One region accepts a specific type of barcode for mass mailing and another region accepts a different barcode. In the Publisher, you can easily set up your barcodes to either test the region to be delivered to and apply a specific value, or simply include this value in your data source to directly be encoded in the barcode. In this section we'll cover a couple different examples to highlight this type of usage.
