Renae Hunt

We are Oct 8, 2020 go live date.   we want to update our membership cards.   We are looking at cards with bar codes to identify members.   What type of bar code does Altru require inorder to read and pull up the constituent's information.

Renae Hunt‍ FYI, barcode readers need an identified starting and stopping point, so you'll want to add an "x" to the beginning and end of the barcode to make it scannable. 

Whitney Jacobs

The other commenters are correct. Another easy way to get the font is to go to Tickets --> Print Setup in Altru and scroll to the bottom. You can always download it there.

Do I put the "x" before and after the merge field insert? x<<MEMBERID>>x for example?

Lori Elder

I use *before and after barcode*
