Setting up your SAP R/3 system to support new OTF user bar codes

Use this procedure when using the sap2afp transform to print with a new bar code that you have created for the job:

From the R/3 main menu, access the Font window by either taking the Word Processing → Font path, or typing /nSP73 in the ok-Code field.
From the SAPscript Font Maintenance: Initial Screen window, select the System bar codes option and click Change.
Click Create and fill in the bar code information on the Create/Change System Bar Code window as shown in Figure SAPScript Font Maintenance (Create/Change) System Bar Code window:

SAPScript Font Maintenance (Create/Change) System Bar Code window
Click Continue.
When the system prompts you for a Change Request Query request, click Cancel.
From the SAPscript Font Maintenance: Initial Screen window, select the Printer bar codes option and click Change.
From the Create/Change... window displayed below, select the intended bar code (ZDOCGOF) and fill in the remaining information as shown in Figure SAPScript Font Maintenance (Create/Change) window:

SAPScript Font Maintenance (Create/Change) window
Click Continue.

Before you can use this new Output Text Format (OTF) bar code, you must define a layout set that contains this new bar code to use your device type (in this case, ZDOCGOF).
Add an entry in the barcode.tab configuration file that identifies this new OTF bar code name to an actual bar code type. The barcode.tab configuration file identifies values in this format:
```
BarCode=ZDOBAR Type=017 Mode=002 Flag=128
```

For more information about the barcode.tab configuration file and how it relates to the Bar Code Object Content Architecture (BCOCA), see Bar codes and printing from SAP R/3 through InfoPrint Manager.
