this is a horrid translation of what was posted :

Since I know that there is here numerous German user and my desire is to be fulfilled probably with on-board means of the best Proggies of all times, I contact times directly into German you. Thus: I white that it gives/gave a Plugin, which with the help of the brother P Touch the bar codes of the registered films spend can/could. Now a P-Touch is already not at all inexpensive and the expendable material for this not straight. Thus I seek to collect and print the bar codes after a possibility including title on commercial Zweckform/Avery labels. Sense and purpose of the whole idea is the following: I often lend my films to friends and acquaintance and put the DVDs into the usual paper bags to give (instead of the originals covering). To these I would give now gladly a bar code, in order me the Scanfunktion of the iPhone App too use to make and for me the tip/search work with the rental business and return procedure as possible make as simple. I remembered a catalog with bar codes to perhaps provide to be however unfortunately provided have no notion as I an expenditure for catalog titles and the Cover can.

First off I hope this helps you out a little.

When using the bar codes to scan, the PTouch can do this without much issue, you just have to build a template layout that works for you.

Putting the bar codes into so other program should be possible with the correct coding or information export to something like word.

I used the p-touch to do the following :



You could put the bar code on the paper sleeve, but when I loan DVD's to friends I put it into a standard DVD case with a post it note where the sleeve is. Or I use a little padded 10 CD holder like some people use to hold a few cd's in their cars.

I would look into some of the xml exporters tools

Quoting Rhigster:

Quote:
Also suche ich nach einer Möglichkeit die Barcodes samt Titel auf handelsübliche Zweckform/Avery-Etiketten zu sammeln und zu drucken.

Mit MS Office (und vermutlich auch OpenOffice) könnte man sowas uU mit Seriendruck erschlagen. Die benötigten Felder mit CSVExport speichern, in Excel umwandeln und dieses Excel-Sheet als Datenbasis für einen Seriendruck in Word nehmen.
Für den Barcode eine Schrift namens "Bar-Code 39 lesbar" suchen und dann einfach ein Sternchen vor und hinter die UPC/EAN setzen. (Beispielbild)

Da die Cover mit einbinden würde allerdings etwas sportlichen Ehrgeiz erfordern: Das Namensschema ist relativ einfach, ich wüsste auf die Schnelle aber nicht wie man die in Word dann einbindet.


cya, Mithi

PS Mit Bordmitteln, in diesem Falle wohl einem Report, lässt sich das vermutlich nicht machen, wenn ich mich recht entsinne ist da damals jemand dran gescheitert weil er die * nicht an die UPC/EAN bekommen hat.
