The MSI barcode specification is used in IDAutomation Barcode Fonts, Components and Applications to create an MSI Plessey Barcode which includes only numbers.
- Using MSI Barcode Fonts with a font encoder returns text formatted to the MSI Plessey barcode specifications.
- The MSI barcode option in all components and applications will produce a barcode readable image.
- Using Uni_MSI with a universal barcode font encoder returns text formatted to the Universal Barcode Font, a single cross-platform font that creates several barcode types.
- Nat_MSI creates a “Native” barcode from pure text without requiring the installation of any additional fonts or components. These options exist in the Native Barcode Generators for Access, Crystal Reports, FileMaker, JavaScript and Oracle Reports.
