Barcodes on DOCLINE® Requests

DOCLINE provides a machine-readable version of the request number to facilitate volume processing. To display and print barcode numbers, you must have the 3 of 9 Barcode font installed in the Windows Fonts directory of your PC.

Once the barcode font is installed, barcode numbers will automatically display and print on DOCLINE requests.

NOTE: Displaying barcode numbers is optional. Without the barcode font installed, the request number displays as:

   * 4191 *
   Request # 4191
