Barcode EAN13 - How to change height?

sschwarz

Hi,
we are printing EAN-13 Barcode, using the EAN13 Barcode Generator.
Downloaded at mibuso.com.
It includes a TTF-Font for printing the barcode.
Is it possible to increase the height, but not the width?
I need a Fontsize called SC2, thats 37.29 mm width and 26.26 mm height.
Can anyone help, please?

Thanks
Stefan

had the same problem some years ago. Cause of the fixed ratio between width and height i changed the size of the font until the width was correct and then changed the height of the textbox where the barcode was printed in. Worked fine.

Thanks, but this does not give the requested size.
If i adjust the width, the height is far too small, so i cannot change the height of the textbox.
Any other ideas?

Thanks

You can try the EAN13 created by the Barcode generator V2
It doesn't use fonts. It creates a BMP which gets instantly imported into your Report or whatever. It allows for sizing.

I already tried Barcode Generator V2.
But i have problems with the width.
If i enter 200 pixels for the widht i get 22 mm.
If i enter 205 pixels for the widht i get 54 mm.
I could not get the requested 37.29 mm.

what size do yo get for 201 thru 204?

If it continues as you wrote

200 = 22
201 = 28.4
202 = 34.8
203 = 41.2
204 = 47.7
205 = 54

so if it's a fraction of a millimeter off it's no good?
