BARMAG (BM)
Purpose Statement specifying the magnification in regard to width of the bars in a
bar code.
Syntax BARMAG|BM
is the magnification in regard to width of the bars, which make
up the bar code.
Allowed input: Depends on type of bar code.
Default value: 2
Reset to default by: PRINTFEED execution.
Remarks The magnification only affects the bar code width, not the height of the
bars (see BARHEIGHT). For example, by default the BARRATIO is 3:1
and the BARMAG is 2, which means that the wide bars will be 6 dots
wide and the narrow bars will be 2 dots wide (2 × 3:1 = 6:2).
The magnification also affects the interpretation in EAN and UPC bar
codes, since the interpretation is an integrated part of the EAN/UPC code.
BARMAG can be replaced by a parameter in the BARSET statement.
Example Programming a Code 39 bar code, selecting a barfont for all directions and
enabling the printing of the bar code interpretation:
10 PRPOS 30,400
20 DIR 1
30 ALIGN 7
40 BARTYPE "CODE39"
50 BARRATIO 2,1
60 BARHEIGHT 120
70 BARMAG 3
80 BARFONT "Swiss 721 BT" ON
90 PRBAR "ABC"
100 PRINTFEED
A more compact method is illustrated by the example for BARSET statement.
