l Type: The supplement type can be 2-digit (originally used to indicate the edition of a
magazine or periodical) or 5-digit (used to indicate the suggested retail price for books). In
case this option is set to None, and the data includes digits for the 2 or 5 supplement, the
supplement data will be skipped and the additional barcode will not be rendered.
Note
When the chosen supplement type doesn't match the data, the supplement data will
be skipped and the additional barcode will not be rendered.
l Height Factor: This is the relative height of the supplement's bars compared to the
normal bars.
l Space Before : Defines the space between the main symbol and the supplement, in cm.
Human Readable Message
When this option is checked, PlanetPress Connect shows a human readable text below or
above the barcode, as defined using the Text Position, using the specified font and font size.
The font size is given in points (pt).
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.
