This is one of those "I'm stumped" questions. 
What we would like to do is be able to create and display
bar codes in Pagemaker or illustrator (etc) or import them so
that we can place them in the page makeup programs. This
will allow us to print them on the laser and our L300 typesetter.
I'v been looking and asking and every one looks at me and
says "I'll have to get back to you". For some of the applications
we have we need bar codes (ie look at a domestic box of 35mm film and count).
We can do this on Atex - monotype and on Purup but, we'd
really like to be able to do it on a desktop platform.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated, else I may be
forced to create this monster myself. Thanks.
