Barcode Code128-Wide To Narrow Ratio hasn't any effect


Hi I have a Barcode tool that I use it to make barcodes in my Ms Access Reports. I have found that the "Wide To Narrow Ratio" property hasn't any effect when I use Code128 barcodes. I tried another tool and I had the same... Why? thanks


Solution

  • code128 is a fixed ratio barcode; it uses bar/space widths of 1x, 2x, 3x, and 4x. Narrow/wide bar ratios are used in symbols like code39 and code93.
