Bar code not scannable

Antoine KAIBER

I uninstalled BIP and the code 128 font again. The weird thing is (as you'll see on the screen below), it isn't in my list anymore but I can't still choose "code 128 if I force it by writing it manually :

The text "test" on this screen above is written in code 128 font (and it isn't displayed as a barcode anymore). The font seems as it is "semi-installed" because if I force manually with a randomn font such as "code 127" I get this kind of message :

My internet is slow so I cannot afford but when I have a good connection I might need to uninstall/reinstall word to do somemore testing.

Hi Elkbir,

Could you please let me know what is the latest issue?

Antoine KAIBER

I tried with UPC/EAN Font (because I have never installed UPC/EAN font so it must've been installed when BIP was installed) :

But the result is I get nothing, not even an unreadable barcode, its totaly blank in the report.

It works ! Apparently it was in the font mappings properties of the report in BIP :

I had several font families that I had uploaded onto bip then suppressed them (in administration -> font mappings) but they were still in the properties of the report. So I deleted them there aswell and apparently I had to rename the "Default Code 128" into "Code 128" (how the font is named in word) for it to work (I had already dont it in administration -> font mappings) but it hadn't work at the time, for many reasons I guess.

Pleased you have it working :0)

Some points would be greatly appreciated at this point (excuse the pun)

Yes I already recommended some of your comments and marked them as useful, does it give you points ? I marked my last post as correct as this was the answer to my problem, idk how the point system works.

@Antoine KAIBER I am facing the same challenge. Not able to scan the barcode using mobile app.

Can you share the resolution?
