Intelligent Barcode in HP YoursTruly/SmartStream Designer

[DCurry]

You need the code from the mailhouse. It contains a lot more info than just the zipcode.

Revisiting this... Can't get a straight answer from the USPS, and don't feel like skimming through the 57 page IMB document on their website...

What is the positioning of the IMB code, and what are the physical dimensions it needs to be?

It's NOT part of the Notice 67 template package.

Also, for authoring IMBs in FusionPro, once you get the properly sorted code from your mail house, you'll need to create an empty rule script to convert the letter codes into numerical codes so that the Automation4State font will properly interpret them and make the correct code. This is the script:

var onecode = Field("Intelligent Mail Barcode"); //Replace "FATD" with Field("Intelligent Mail Barcode")
onecode = onecode.replace(/F/g,"0"); // replaces all F with 0
onecode = onecode.replace(/A/g,"1"); // replaces all A with 1
onecode = onecode.replace(/T/g,"3"); // replaces all T with 3
onecode = onecode.replace(/D/g,"2"); // replaces all D with 2

return onecode;
