The World's Most Powerful Scale Support
BarTender can now directly accept data from weighing scales. Simply drag the
scale control from the on-screen toolbox into a data entry form, specify the
desired model, and start weighing and printing!
-
Easy Design:
Simply "drag and drop" into forms. (Choose from 8 different scale displays.)
-
Compatible:
Predefined support for a variety of industry-standard scale models.
-
Tare Support:
Use the value built into the scale or source it from a field in your database.
-
Versatile: Have either your scale or your PC determine when you have a
"stable weight."
 |
Print-time data entry forms now accept and display
scale data.
Choose from a variety of scale displays (selected samples shown at right). |
More Powerful Print-Time Data Entry Forms
It's now easier than ever to design powerful, user-friendly data entry forms
when it is desirable to prompt users for certain data at print-time.
-
New Controls:
Many more data entry objects, including radio buttons, check boxes, weighing
scales, and pictures.
-
Drag and Drop:
Create controls and link them to label data sources with simple mouse motions.
-
More Versatile:
Now, optionally design forms without designing your labels first.
-
Automatic Text:
Most form controls are now automatically created with text objects right next
to them, which saves you that extra step.
-
Pop-Up Tips: Optionally pop up helpful hints when your users
hover their cursor over selected form controls.
 |
A new toolbox (similar to that from the label designer) makes it much
easier to design
data entry forms. |
"On-the-Fly" Object Automation
Programmatically change the position, size, color, and visibility of label
objects right in the middle of a print job. For example, a text object for
"Shipping Method" can automatically print in red when the value read from your
database is "Over Night."
 Human
Readable Support for 2D Bar Codes
Automatic display of the human readable version of 2D bar code data is now
supported.

Version 9.3 expands upon BarTender's industry-leading
features for connecting to peripherals and integrating with other software.

variety of serial devices, including weighing scales.
-
Bidirectional WebSphere Printing:
Commander's IBM WebSphere support has been improved. It now supports HTTP
posting, which allows for bidirectional print communications.
-
Commander Variables: Now store values into a single location and
reference them from multiple Commander commands.
