Once you have installed the barcode fonts and Add-In, you will be able to use
the Add-In to encode data in Excel. Are you able to see the Add-in tab? If not,
please view the article regarding the Add-In Visibility.

1. You can enter the data in a column (Example Column A) and duplicate the
A column in Column B:

2. Duplicated, Column B can be the barcode Column for the Add-In/
Intelligent Mail Barcode:

3. Apply the Add-in by selecting the data in Column B then choose Add-Ins,
select Intelligent Mail from the drop-down, and select Change To Barcode:

You will see the Barcode column as an Intelligent Mail Barcode. The next
step is to save the file and perform a mail merge. Once the merge is
performed, you will need to re-apply the font to the merged field. If you do
not know how to perform a Mail Merge, please
visit Microsoft's Office site for instructions.

Apply the IDAutomationIMB or IDAutomationPOSTNET font (this font must be applied to
Intelligent Mail encoding) to the merged field <<Barcode>>

This is what the field will look like with the IDAutomationIMB or IDAutomationPOSTNET font
applied:

barcode field:
