Solution to:
Extra Character is Added to the End of a Code 39 or Codabar Barcode

This issue applies to:

• Code 39 and Codabar Barcode Fonts
• Barcode Label Software
• Barcode Image Generators
• Barcode Components

The extra character that is added to the end of a barcode is called the check digit or check character. For barcode symbologies that do not require a check digit such as Code 39 and Codabar, the check character may be disabled by setting the Add Check Digit property to "No". If the check digit is to be encoded in the barcode, but not displayed, set the Add Check Digit to Text to "No".
