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, barcoded request numbers will automatically display and print on DOCLINE requests. The request number will also be displayed beneath the barcode.
NOTE: Displaying barcode numbers is optional. Without the barcode font installed, the request number displays as:
* 4191 *
Request # 4191
