Unless you are saving big bucks pre-printing these codes IMHO that advice is very appropriate. I've been checking various articles on this subject - printing USPS bar codes from M$ Word - for an hour or two now and I keep seeing the same advice:Įarly Office users aren't going to see any support from M$ on this anyhow.

IMHO, given the federal government's wonderful handling of even more important things (like taxes and ObamaCare, for example), I would recommend installing this on a junk PC first to see just what exactly it does.

NOTE: In either case one gets what they paid for: NO documentation only a zip file containing one blind installation executable file with no description whatsoever as to what the installer is doing to your computer.

You know, because we paid more we get less and we aren't interested in add-on services.īut if you ever wondered what information they encode (i.e.: who REALLY mailed you that lovely piece of junk), you can type in the code for the bars here: They don't even have allowance for "generic sender" codes. So no barcodes to help our more expensive mail out. It is not part of Word anymore because most users are NOT set up to do commercial mailings and it is SOLELY for commerical mailers. Say, quzi time: is no addressing at all less impersonal than "Occupant"?Īnd the link below leads to nowhere useful as time has passed it by and digging about gives the above result. Though "Occupant" does a pretty good cheap job of that I think. It is instead meant for the purpose of managing the billing of the folks sending you garbage as well as add-on services they like like ACS: address correction services to keep you from fleeing their reach. On the theory it's easier/faster to read in the flow of billions of items a day. So it ain't the barcodes that helped things get to a particular address by providing the USPS a barcode of the zip code. You have to have a mailer id and serialize each item. The IMB resullts are meant for use with mailings, you know, the kind that is cheaper than a birthday card to your grandchild. You'll need to balance the cost of such a service against any savings in postage that you may realize.Ī note potentially of interest to all this: The best solution? Work with a third-party vendor to verify your mailing and provide the barcodes. If you use Word to print barcodes on your envelopes, you my end up with a mailing that you need to redo, as the envelopes may not be accepted by the Post Office. You can read more about this change here: There is a problem with this, however: The US Post Office changed their bar coding standards in late 2006 or early 2007, essentially making the barcodes produced by Word worthless. Word provides a way to use the Envelopes and Labels tools to add a delivery point barcode on your envelopes. (If you want to discover more, visit the US Postal Service Web site at or visit your local Post Office.) Depending on what you are mailing (and how many pieces you are mailing), barcodes could help you save money on your postage. The idea behind the barcode is that the sorting machinery at the US Postal Service would read the code to help route mail more efficiently. What, exactly, is a delivery point barcode? Glad you asked. Even though several versions of Word provides the ability to add barcodes, that doesn't mean you should add them. One of the features of the tool is the ability of Word to print delivery point barcodes on your envelopes. Many people utilize the Envelopes and Labels feature of Word to create their own envelopes.
