You may have bar codes of Banner Index numbers printed on #10 envelopes and other material by Printing & Graphic Services.

If you choose to produce your own bar codes, follow the instructions listed below. Additionally, always have a sample verified with Campus Mail before use. To verify a bar code, send a sample to Campus Mail Services or send a note with your mail stating that the bar code supplied is new and needs to be checked prior to processing the mail.

• Download the "3 of 9 Bar Code" true type font and save it to the Windows/Font directory (i.e. c:/windows/font).
• After downloading and saving the Bar Code font, any application (i.e. MS Word 2003) that uses True Type Fonts will be able to use it under its font menu.
• Set the font size to 26pt or larger.
• Type the Banner Index with an astrisk (*) before and after the Index and use upper case with no spaces. (i.e. A banner index MBZT01 would be typed as: *MBZT01*)

• Bar Codes need to be supplied with each bundle of first class mail.
• First mail must be bundled in groups of "Missoula, MT" and "Out of State".
• Do not send mixed mail if you have two or more pieces for a specific group.
• Groups may be separated by paper clips or rubber bands. Rubber bands are available by request from Campus Mail Services.
