I'd like to have more information on this statement. What is it, what's it used for?

If you're asking if PlanetPress can support Code 128 type C, then yes it can, however, judging from the statement above, there may be something else you want to do.

Regards,
Rapha

This will be for a mailing piece. At the moment if we need a barcode, we use the standard postnet barcode. But because of changing postal standard, we need to use a GS1-128 barcode. Using the barcode object I pick a barcode type of code 128. I check automatically append checksum and add start/stop characters. I then pick data to give me the characters
