Inserting barcodes of any kind into your Word documents and Excel sheets has never been simpler. TEC-IT TBarCode Office is an add-in that integrates seamlessly with your Word and Excel tools adding a new entry in their ribbons, from where you can insert any of its pre-configured barcodes – all of the highest quality and following the strictest standards – with just one click.
The add-ins install directly on your Word and Excel menus, requiring no additional settings or tweaks from the user. They will just appear as a new panel in the program’s ribbon, from where you can insert a new barcode, navigate to the developer’s site or ask for help. When you click on the “Insert Barcode” icon, a new panel opens on the right-hand side of the Word or Excel window where you will find all the settings you need to create and insert the new barcode – type, data (when required), size, etc.
This professional tool for high-quality barcodes includes all the most commonly used types – from standard linear barcodes (EAN, UPC, Code 39, Code 93, etc.) to 2D barcodes, such as QR codes, Data Matrices, Aztec Codes, or MaxiCodes. Likewise, you will find GS1 Barcodes of various types as well as postal codes for USPS, Royal Mail, or the Italian Postal service, among others.
TEC-IT TBarCode Office is part of the renowned and well-established TEC-IT family of barcode tools. Despite its ease of use (no specific knowledge or learning curve are required to start using this simple utility), this is a professional tool for professional use, and therefore, the license fee is not for everyone. If you only require an ISBN code or QR code occasionally, there are free online tools out there for that purpose, but if you are a frequent barcode user demanding the finest results, you won’t find many similar tools out there capable to compete with the high quality and usability of the wide range of TEC-IT products.
v10.5 [Sep 17, 2012]
-Enhancements:
-Rotated Barcodes
-Word Add-In: Rotated Barcodes are now supported.
-Disable Warnings
-Word Add-In: A new option for disabling warning notifications has been added.
-Improved Demo Dialog
-The demo and license dialogs were improved.
-Fixes:
-Enlarged Barcodes
-Word Add-In: Enlarged bar codes during mail merge into New Document. The problem appeared in Word 2010/2013 compatibility mode when opening documents created with previous versions of Word.
-Flickering Bar Codes in Word 2013
-Word Add-In: Newly inserted bar code objects are drawn by Word over and over until all bar code properties have been set. Although this is by design of Word 2013 some enhancements in the Add-In were able to reduce this effect. Previous versions of Word do not have this problem.
-Disabled Design Mode
-Word Add-In: Reopening a document disables the bar code design mode (when clicking a bar code). It turned out that the problem is due to a bug in the .NET 4.0 VSTO runtime. The implemented workaround also fixes the missing design mode when dobule clicking a Word document or enabling/disabling the add-in through Word options.
