[FibiIA]

Hi all,

Best regards.

FibiIA,
There is a useful Help document for CVI that explains the different ways of using fonts in CVI.

LabWindows/CVI 2012 Help » Using Fonts

How are you attempting to use this font in your application?

Hi Jared,

I need to put a text which its font is a bar code 128. So, i copied into windows/fonts and i expect that CVI will load it as do word or excel. I will check the help of CVI if there is a solution.

Thank you for replying and i will appreciate if you can help me more.

Best regards.

Hi,

You should be able to display barcode fonts by changing the Text Style for most user interface text controls. Below is a screenshot of a user interface displaying barcodes. 

I did this by opening the Edit window of my Text Box Control and selecting Text Style.

Then I changed the Font to a barcode font.

Hope that helps.

Hi Rohama K,

The fact is that i don't find the font of bar code 128 in the list of fonts when openning the window of Text Style.

I need find the way of loading a new font to labwindows.

Best regards.

To get my font to show up, I installed it by following these directions. What OS and LabWindows/CVI version are you using? Are you able to see the font in Word or Excel? Can you attach the font so that I can try?

FibiIA,
I attempted to open your attachment (C28TGCFZ.zip) but it said the .zip file was invalid and could not extract any files. Could you please try re-attaching?
