Apologies if it's a FAQ but I've only just started reading this group because I've only just got a postscript printer! Currently we print supermarket shelf labels in our stores using a HP LJII and a custom font cartridge for doing a bar code which is read for re-ordering using a hand held entry device. I would like to be able to print an equivalent shelf label using postscript. I don't expect the text will be a problem but I am a little concerned about the bar code. I'll be purchasing a postscript programming book (any suggestions?) ASAP but I wonder if I'll still need to get hold of some custom font definitions to ultimately be able to do the bar codes? I appreciate your time in reading this as I am obviously an extremely novice postscript user, I'll be even more appreciative if you take the time to reply.
