"We really like your Code 39 fonts. The ratio and spacing of the glyphs allows them to survive multiple generations of degradation (scanning or faxing) and still be recognizable by our commercial forms scanners. It was this degradation problem that started me on the search for a better font which resulted in selecting IDAutomation"
- LeRoy Tavares, American National Insurance Company, Galveston, Texas
Code 39 is the easiest of all alpha-numeric barcodes to use and is designed for character self-checking, eliminating the requirement for check character calculations. Code 39 barcodes may be generated from a
font encoder or a
calculated field to dynamically produce multiple barcode symbols. To manually create a barcode that encodes the
data "BARCODE39", perform the following:
1. Enter * as the start character
2. Enter "BARCODE39" which is the data to be encoded
3. Enter * as the stop character
4. Select only *BARCODE39* and change the font for that text
to IDAutomationC39
The parentheses ( ) may also be used instead of "!" (exclamation point) or "*" (asterisk) as the start and stop code to eliminate the "*" (asterisk) from appearing in the human-readable version of the fonts. When using the standard fonts, substitute the "=" (equal) or "_" (underscore) character for the space character. Symbol Encoded Fonts may be used to encode the space character without a substitution character; available in the latest version.
These Code 39 barcode fonts were developed according to AIM, ANSI and European EN 800 standards.
"The Code 39 Barcode Font provided by IDAutomation enabled us to ship resources quicker, with less errors and less human intervention. The process is largely due to the 'scanable' Packing Slip ID merged to a MS Word document with the Code 39 Font for the ID Bar Code. Other processes we considered required programming solutions prior to printing packing slips in order to achieve the checksum value required. Using the Code 39 Font, no programming was required apart from setting up the MS Word Template with the required MS Excel spreadsheet."

TOP NOTCH Customer service
I am a novice when it comes to barcode use, and the professionals at IDAutomation fully explained what I needed to get my scanner working, and which of their fonts were necessary to make that happen. Will always turn to them for my barcode needs by Michael on 10/26/2018
Integrated Easily with our Application
We were looking for a barcode software solution that could integrate easily with our existing programs. We tried other bundle software that generated barcodes, but for the most part they would not integrate or provide the functionality that we were looking for. Many programs offered good features, but what attracted us more to IDAutomation was the ease of integration with programs such as Microsoft Excel and Word. IDAutomation Code 39 fulfill our requirement, it is very easy to use and generates consistent results. by Sara on 10/6/2014
These fonts are worth twice what I paid for them.
After wasting hours of my time trying to make consistently readable bar codes from the free fonts, I took a leap of faith and ordered ID Automation’s font set. Within a few minutes I had completed my project with high quality, readable bar codes.
Works with ChronoScan
Recommended to use this font package for bar-codes by ChronoScan rep. Working well and we are pleased. Thanks
Simple, Clean and Quick
I used the Code 39 to make gift cards in InDesign. Merging images won't work in ID, and 1,000 of them would have been daunting to place individually! Code 39 allowed me to very easily merge a set of numbers in InDesign, no extra files, no extra messing, simple, clean and quick. Thank you!
