printing barcode in CR10

[JeroenBoon]

Hello,

in one of my reports I print article information, including the EAN13 of the article. Now I also wat to print the barcode, so the articles can easily be scanned from the print. How do I do that?

Thanks, Jeroen.

You will need to have that barcode font registered on your machine. If you already have the EAN-13 barcode font on your machine then it should appear as one of the font selections within Crystal. If you do not have this font, a simple internet search should point you in the right direction of a company who offers this barcode font. You may have to end up purchasing this barcode font.

Hi oneilltnc,

thanks for your response. We already have the font I would have to use. But the problem is that just printing the EAN13 in the right font doesn't result in a scanable barcode.
F.I. ean '2560100000518' has to be transformed to a sting and that string has to be printed in the right font.
So: how do I transform the ean into the right string?

Thanks, Jeroen.
