How the Trial Edition Works

For the first 30 days, the Trial Edition of BarTender functions just like the full-working Enterprise Print Server edition (our most powerful version). After that time, BarTender runs in a slightly limited "demo mode" that randomly changes one character in each printed bar code or text field. For example, if you tried to print out a text or bar code field containing "ABCD," it might print out as "ABXD" instead.

Choosing the Right Edition

After evaluating the Trial Edition of BarTender, make sure you purchase the right edition.  Load the label designs you created into the Trial Edition and use the File, Edition Information option to see which edition you need.  You can also view the on-line Feature Comparison chart.  Then you can learn more about how to buy or how to upgrade BarTender.

Getting the Right Printer Drivers

BarTender will work with any true Windows printer driver. However, if you are using any of the major brands of label printers, you will get much higher performance if you also download and use Drivers by Seagull. (Drivers must be downloaded separately. They are not included in the BarTender downloads below.)

Downloading the Trial Edition

Because the multilingual edition supports instant switching between more than 20 languages, it takes somewhat longer to download than the English-only edition. (The supported languages can be seen in the list of BarTender "Getting Started" Manuals.)
