Note that barcodes of these types don't process tilde characters (~) in the data as special
characters.
Barcode properties
This topic lists the properties of the barcode types Australia Post, Japan Post, KIX and UPS
IMb. For the properties of other barcode types, see "Barcode type and properties" on page673.
Height, width and spacing
The height, width and spacing of the barcode are all measured in pixels (38 dpi).
l Bar height: The height of the (shorter) bars.
l Extended bar height: The total height of the extended bars.
l Bar width: The width of the bars.
l Spacing: The distance between the bars.
Scale
Defines if and how the rendered barcode is scaled in relation to the parent element:
l None: The barcode is rendered based on the module width.
l Proportional: The barcode is stretched up to where it fits either the width or height of the
parent box, whichever requires the less stretching.
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.
