- code128b.afm
- code128b.pfb (copy from CODE128B.PS)
- code128b.pfm
- Add the font to Fontmap.GS (e.g. /usr/share/ghostscript/7.07/lib/Fontmap.GS):
/Code128B (code128b.pfb) ;
- Try this test program:
/Code128B findfont 18 scalefont setfont 30 130 moveto (\210My Message Is This\212) show 30 100 moveto (\213\210Barcoding can be EASY!\212\213) show showpage
