Creating a Barcode Area Definition File
Open the original data and output the PRN file in the
printer driver. Open the PRN file using the barcode
application, and create a barcode area definition file (CSV
format).
1
Click [Properties] (or [Preferences]) in the printing
dialog box of the source application.
2
Click the [Basic] tab.
3
Select [Save as a File] in the [Output] pull-down
menu.
4
Click [Details], and specify a destination.
5
After input is finished, click [Save].
A print format file is created in the specified destination.
Perform the same settings for the printer driver as
when you actually print, other than in [Output]. If
the PRN file format and the actual print setting
(original size, print direction, paper size, imposition,
etc.) are different, the barcode area definition may
not be correctly applied. If you change the layout
setting, the location of the area changes.
