Hi ~ I am new to the CorelDRAW Forums but NOT new to Corel. I have been using CorelDRAW for 15 years or more and I really enjoy it most days. I have upgraded to the X5 suite and I have found an issue with the bar code maker insert tool. I make lots of packaging designs and I have used the bar code tool in Corel almost daily but I found that the tool is not work properly with the new software. I can not change the human readable font now, all I get are '[]' in place of digits. The software shows the drop down font selection function but is grayed out and not working. Is there a problem with my instillation or is it a BUG?
I really need help here. It is always showing the font selection disabled. Can't select font and size. Please help.

seems that you don't have the fonts installed correctly on your computer, try to install the OCR-B fonts and try again.
btw, there's a fast and simple workaround: just COPY (Ctrl+C) or CROP (Ctrl+X) and go to Edit / Paste special, and choose "Metafile". You will have a group of objects (like older versions) and can ungroup, change the font, the color or what you need
I am new here and this is the first time that I know coreldraw could be used for barcode generation, this is really great!
actually this helps out for one or two barcodes but when i want to put hundreds of barcode its difficult .. want a better solution please
