This is an ID card printer, and the barcode is an image created by some
software the customer is using. I don't know what that may be. There
might be a way to use a barcode font but all I have right now is the
Word document that was given to me.
I'll try this with a newer version of Word to see what happens.
I have tried importing the image from a TIFF file and a BMP. I have
also tried using "Link to file" and "Insert and link" (or whatever it
is) with the same results each time.
I have also tried editing the picture and setting its format to "Black
and White" which also did not help.
Can you give me more details on how the graphics handling might be
different?
