Glen,
Fonts and printing are often tricky.  I suggest you talk to the tech support group of the seller/manufacturer/design engineer of your barcode system.

Subject: [MUSEUM-L] Barcoding Membership Cards

 
For many years we have manually recorded visitor 
data but now we are trying to go to a barcode system on our membership 
cards.
 
We are having some trouble with creation of the 
barcodes. We can read all sorts of barcodes on commercial 
products but when we downloaded a free type 39 font and 
printed it our barcode reader does not recognise it. Seems that it is not 
as simple as we thought.
 
Are there any hints out there? We are on a limited 
budget.
 
Thanks!
