Details Tab
On this tab you can define advanced settings for the bar code.
Note:
Not all of these options are available for all bar codes and printers.
Include quiet zones: By checking this field you set, that the bar code will have some white space in
the front and in the end for increased readability.
Descender bars: Some bars of a bar code will be longer than others. This is typically used with
EAN and UPC bar codes that have longer bars in the begging, in the middle and in the end of the bar
code.
Mirror horizontally/mirror vertically: The bar code can be mirrored vertically and horizontally.
bar code will usually have to be printed as graphics for this option to be accessible.
Intercharacter gap: Some bar codes allow you to change the gap between characters in the bar
code (e. g. Code-39).
Include EAN white space: Before and after the bar code a special character is inserted, < or >. It
indicates the width of the bar code. If you put any other object in the extent of the bar code, it will
reduce the readability of the bar code. This option is only valid for EAN bar codes.
