Default postage barcodes

Thanks for the information. I noticed it doesn't show up in print preview.
Will this still work even though it doesn't show in print preview?

The interface for inserting BARCODE fields has gone because they do not
always generate the correct code as per USPS standards, when you're using
street addresses to generate them.

However, you can still insert the BARCODE fields by han (ctrl-F9 to insert
the {}, type the rest of the stuff inside, insert nested fields as
required.

If you have one set up correctly in an existing Word 2003 document, you
should be able to copy/paste it I think.

Oh, and you still need to have your regional settings set to USA.

How can I print a postage barcodes on my envelopes like I did in word
2003?
Everything I find you either need to be on a server or buy 3rd party
software. I just want to print the postage barcode like I used to in word
2003. I just checked PIM. Help, this has become a serious problem for me
