BIP(OBIEE 11.1.1.7 ): Template Builder and Barcode fonts

edited Jul 10, 2013 11:45AM in BI Publisher (MOSC) 7 commentsAnswered
Hello,

I have noticed something rather strange when creating a BIP rtf template containing barcode field (code39 or 128).

I followed instructions in 4.17.1 Using the Barcode Fonts Shipped with BI Publisher, in report designers guide for BIP 11g.

Next, create the MS-Word template, add data field to be barcoded. Double-click it and for BI Publisher code, enter:

For Code 128: <?format-barcode:BAR_CUST_PO;'code128a'?>

Now, set the font for this form field to use Code 128, so in the word template itself, I can see the barcode.

Uploaded the template to BIP, tested it...barcode seems to work ok.

Now, in Report definition, when I click "Edit" to edit the layout, it opens in MS Word, I load the sample data and then double-click on the barcoded field.

Howdy, Stranger!
