FREE Summa barcode Gen for Illustrator

A few questions, I never used the back barcode because i was under the impression two cut files were needed to do that, one for each direction. But you are saying that the software "knows" which orientation the cut job is by the last number being a 0 or 5 ? Which software did that work in? GoSign, winplot?
We use cutter control to cut rolls as currently as GoSign won't sheet cut no matter how we try.
I could configure the code to do that though.

I have made a few changes to the one posted above, that adds the barcode number in text to the left, and defaults the barcode prompt # to the current date and time so you don't need to manually input the code and ensures it's always unique.
I believe so, it's been awhile. I use goproduce, never used gosign as I only have the flatbed... But it should be the same?


https://www.signs101.com/threads/summa-manual-barcodes.178680/. This is a long thread where a few of us were making it / discussing it. Post 30 of that thread has a bunch of SDKs that Christian posted, it helped a lot in understanding all the specific stuff needed to produce compliant codes that work front / back. It's good for a skim read!

That's awesome you were able to get a plt file output ready to be cut! I'm trying right now to see if that's possible, but i need the "Gcodes" to call for doing that. Do you know where to find those?
You don't need gcodes for summacut, this uses hpgl language. I have programmer guide for summa where is hpgl commands, or you use other plotter?

Если мне не изменяет память... Но, по-моему, последняя цифра должна заканчиваться на 0, если это лицевая сторона, и на 5, если обратная. Таким образом, программа знает, как правильно повернуть файл.

Код из 11 цифр, я так понимаю? Так что теоретически пользователь всё равно может создать первые 10 цифр, а последняя цифра всегда будет 0 и 5.

Я поиграюсь с ним ещё на этих выходных. Мне хотелось сделать его более настраиваемым, как у вас... и чтобы он был более похожим на контекстное меню с кнопками и действиями. Я просто набросал его на скорую руку, чтобы сделать штрихкоды для нескольких повторяющихся заказов.
оnyx create two files for two barcods. In my macros i generate two files too

I found the SKD documentation. Going to update the script to ensure it follow what's in there. Now that I have their SDK will look into making a program/script that works in illustrator that will create marks+barcodes and create cut files. Definately going to try getting the back barcode to work too.
