The font used by the TL891 Tape Mini-Library is UPC Barcode Type 39
I downloaded a freeware font from
http://www.adams1.com/pub/russadam/fonts.html
and it worked like a charm from MS WORD (24 pt)
Thanks to
Paul Kitwin (mobile) [basker_at_ricochet.net] who also noted that Excel was the
best program to create barcodes
Simon Greaves [Simon.Greaves_at_usp.ac.fj] who recommended a barcode company
who
should be able to help with fonts and/or label printing solutions. The
company's name is Push Button Solutions,
http://www.pushbutton.co.uk,
sales_at_pushbutton.co.uk.
