If you just want to print a free Bar code font.
Download a free font available over the net (like IDautoamtionHC39M) and install on your system.
Go to reports and change the fontname property of the field to the font you have just installed.
Thank you for response.
I tried font 39 for item code.

it is printing Barcode but not readable by the device.
The device is reading the barcode printed on my laptop ,CD case a book barcode also but not this one.

Could be one of many reasons -- just a few tips I didn't already see:
- Make sure there is ample whitespace around the barcode, the left and right especially.
- Print it at a good DPI (minimum 300), don't print in draft quality.
- Don't use an inkjet printer.
Either way, I seriously doubt this problem has anything to do with NAV. Do some testing in MS Word until you get it working.
Dear , Still if you facing problem kindly contact me.i will guide how to print barcode and shelf labels from nav directly I have already done it . Best regards Arsad

We print BarCode, code 39, on our sales invoice and this is what we have in our report where we want to print barcode:
In fontname entered BC C39 3 to 1 Narrow
In SourceExpr entered '*' + "Sales Invoice Header"."No." + '*'

Did you entered '*' or just * in the expression?
My Item No. is 630175452122
and i enterd this value in a text variable
text variable := '*'+630175452122+'*'.
it is printing the barcode but it is not readable by the barcode reader.
Usually I do something like this <Text Var> := '1234567890';
Then in SourceExpr I entered '*' + <Text Var> + '*'
but as i tried to read my laptop barcode which is readed by reader then i tried to CD case it is also readable and i tried few more and the reader detected the barcode but not from navision with font 39 and code 128.

Try this really a basic step -
Open MS word and enter (123456789) and select Font as IDAutomationHC39M or the one which you are using. * It will look like a barcode.
Print and try to scan this code.
If its working then
try to amend your code
else
try to amend your scanner.
