Add a barcode to the drawing

To add a barcode to a drawing, you need a barcode font installed on your computer that can be read by a barcode scanner.

Find a suitable font and save it to your computer.

Right-click the **.ttf** file and select **Install**. After that, the font will be available on your computer.

You can verify that the font is installed via **Control Panel > Fonts**.

Activate the font for use in Vertex G4.

  1. Select File > System Settings > Edit

  2. Select Administrator view

  3. Select the keyword group draft / Graphics fonts / G4 Graphics fonts

  4. Add a new keyword

Enter the font name in quotation marks — check the exact name in Windows font settings (Control Panel > Fonts).

Click OK and restart G4.

After this, you can add barcode text to a Vertex G4 drawing by selecting this font.

You can also use the font in drawing form templates. Instructions for editing templates:
