    Working with Fonts
    EPSON BarCode Fonts (Windows only)
    EPSON BarCode Fonts let you easily create and print many types of bar codes.
    Normally, bar code creation is a laborious process requiring you to specify various command
    codes, such as Start bar, Stop bar and OCR-B, in addition to the bar code characters themselves.
    However, EPSON BarCode Fonts are designed to add such codes automatically, allowing you to
    easily print bar codes that conform to a variety of bar code standards.
    EPSON BarCode Fonts support the following types of bar codes:
