Can I print POSTNET bar codes on envelopes from Word 2007?
I understand it is only the check box in the envelope dialog that has been
removed, the field itself is still available and could be manually added; however the Postnet bar code does not meet the requirements of the postal services and so serves no useful purpose. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Peter Jamieson wrote: As far as I know this facility was removed in Word 2007 - there's a small amount of further info. in Word 2007 Help under "Why can't I include a POSTNET bar code or FIM-A code on envelopes or labels?"

A conversation late last year suggests that this may not be the whole truth - i.e. although Word may not generate the correct "delivery point" barcodes generated from ZIP and the street address, barcodes generated from ZIP+4 codes are acceptable and are used. However, I really don't know and am quite happy to leave it to users of the USPS to work it out for themselves :-) Peter Jamieson "Graham Mayor" wrote in message ...
