Color
The Color group allows you to choose a different Barcode color (instead of black) and
Background color (instead of white), by typing a hexadecimal color value (see for example
w3school's color picker).
When black is a composite of CMYK or RGB values, it may incur a color click charge on some
printers. Check the Output in Grayscale option to make sure that pure black is used.
Output format
Defines how the barcode is output on the page. There are two possible formats:
l SVG: Vector format. This is usually of higher quality, but may take longer to generate and
is not compatible with Email output.
l PNG: Binary rasterized format. This has a slightly lower quality than SVG but is usually
generated faster and will display properly in Email output.
Australia Post, Japan Post, KIX, USPS IMb
Australia Post, Japan Post, KIX and USPS IMb are some of the types of barcodes that can be
added to a template; see "Barcode" on page640.
In PlanetPress Connect versions prior to 2019.2 the USPS IMb barcode was called
"OneCode".
The barcode can be added either using the Barcode toolbar button or through selecting Insert
> Barcode on the menu; see "Adding a Barcode" on page640.
Initially the barcode will have the barcode type's default properties. To change those properties,
such as the scale and color, open the Barcode properties dialog: right-click the barcode (on the
Design tab in the Workspace) and select the Barcode... option in the context menu.
Note that barcodes of these types don't process tilde characters (~) in the data as special
characters.
