Can the whitespace left after suppressing human readable be removed?

Using Code-128 Linear Barcode from JavaBarcode.jar in an ORACLE Report (Version 11.x) on Windows I am creating barcodes for a customer on each detail line, and I want to get as many detail lines per page as possible (there are a lot of lines on some documents). I have already suppressed the human-readable text, and I have also set the Top and Left margins to zero as follows:

BarCode.setXDimensionCM(BarcodeObject, 0.03 );
BarCode.setBarHeightCM (BarcodeObject, 0.50 );
BarCode.setShowText (BarcodeObject, false );
BarCode.setLeftMarginCM (BarcodeObject, 0.00 );
BarCode.setTopMarginCM (BarcodeObject, 0.00 );

The resulting barcode, however, still includes the whitespace where the human-readable would be. Is it possible to suppress this also?

Thanks in Advance
Hank

In the Java Component, use the property:

setTextMarginCM(double newMargin)

This is the space between the bottom barcode and the human-readable (and when no human-readable is present). I believe it may be at its default setting and so even without the human-readable removed, modifying this property will not make too much of a difference. After removing the human readable and adjusting the margins, the barcode will already be at its smallest size.

Thanks. I added:

BarCode.setTextMarginCM (BarcodeObject, 0.00 );

to the settings for a test and confirmed it is probably already at minimum. The change had no impact on the remaining white space under the bars. From that, I conclude that there is no way to get rid of this remaining "margin".

Thanks
Hank
