hi,

Have you loaded you 3 of 9 barcode font in the proper font library?

BTW...
Wikipedia said:
Code 39 is still widely used and can be decoded with virtually any barcode reader. One advantage of Code 39 is that since there is no need to generate a check digit, it can easily be integrated into existing printing system by adding a barcode font to the system or printer and then printing the raw data in that font.

Cannot find any reference to the font on my computer
 
Is the font file in question, in the folder that all your other fonts are in?

You DON'T.

You get it into the FOLDER where ALL the fonts are located on your PC.

Do a search on the C: drive for FONTS to find the folder. Put the file in that folder.

You may need to reboot after you put the file(s) in there.

I don't know if this is relevant, but moving a font file to the Fonts folder was not sufficient for me. I had to "install" the font, from the Control Panel. The install option expects to move the font file to the Fonts folder. If it is already there, an "error" is reported, but it still works.

I am using Windows XP.
 
@webrabbit you're correct. It does need to be installed. Then you may also need to reboot.
