GS1 Logistic Label - Decodability issue - V

In reference to the earlier questions
1. https://support.idautomation.com/Code-128/GS1-Logistic-Label---Decodability-issue/_1313
2. https://support.idautomation.com/Crystal-Reports-Native/GS1-Logistic-Label---Decodability-issue---II/_1318
3. https://support.idautomation.com/Barcode-Fonts/GS1-Logistic-Label---Decodability-issue---III/_1320

The requirement is a GS1 logistical label for a supermarket Coles in Australia. Here is the specification document

https://www.supplierportal.coles.com.au/csp/wps/wcm/connect/bccc580047fa6f34ae9feea487606e48/Coles+B2B+Logistics+Labels+v1-08.pdf?MOD=AJPERES&CACHEID=bccc580047fa6f34ae9feea487606e48

Page 11 has all the required specifications and a sample label

There are two bar codes that need to be printed on the label
The top bar code which has AI02(GTIN)AI37(Quantity)AI15(Best Before date) or A17(Use By Date)AI10(Batch No) is the issue as it cross over the required width

I am using a Crystal report ver 12.5 and a Zebra Z4mPlus printer with 203 DPI Printer (thermal printer)

Based on the specification can you

1. recommend which font I need to use
2. font size I need to use

Regards

Tony

Ben	Best Answer The IDAutomation Code 128 Font Package can generate the GS1-128 Specification. You will need to perform your own calculation to derive the correct size for your requirement as it will vary between GS1-sub standards and the amount of data. Based on the information you provided yesterday, the calculation remains valid--whether it is GS1-128 or ITF14. If you have a different magnification range, you can use the calculation in post GS1 Logistic Label - Decodability issue - III to produce the appropriate mils. Then compare the mils to the point size in the Code 128 Specifications list. Posted 10.5 year(s) ago (0) (0) Report Abuse
