Printing Basics
Barcode Producer can be used to print the barcodes it generates in a variety of ways:
- Single print – provides a single printout of your barcode, useful for proofs and testing
- Label sheets – in connection with Microsoft Word, Pages, or Adobe Creative Suite you can print your barcode multiple times on full-size label sheets
- Barcode Report – a reference document Barcode Producer can create to display your barcode and the specs used to create it, helpful for clients and deliverable packages
What Barcode Producer can and cannot print
Barcode Producer is specifically designed to create customized barcodes – it isn't a graphics design or label production tool.
When Barcode Producer prints, it prints just the barcode and any associated text or additions you've created around it. Barcode Producer is barcode generation software – isn't label production software (i.e. you can't lay out many objects in an open way), nor is it package design or desktop publishing software (i.e. you can't design your product box or book cover in Barcode Producer).
If you want to print more than just your barcode and some additional text, export your barcode to a design app (Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign...) or a generalized text/content app (Microsoft Word, Pages, a database program, etc.) to create fully customized labels, layouts, or designs.
