Barcode Artwork Test
We have a new service where we can test your barcode artwork to give you an idea of whether it will scan well.
This is not an official Barcode Verification Report (which costs $59), as some Supermarkets and Hardware chains require. But is a test using the same equipment and giving the same information.
This test will be done on your artwork – so you can have more confidence about the quality of the barcode before you go to print – or it will tell you what problems there are with the barcode artwork.
To do this test, please purchase the quantity you require ($20 CAD each), and then email us a pdf of the barcode artwork. The pdf must be A4 or smaller in size and 100%. We will print it on a laser printer in B&W (so it won’t test any other print colours) and test it, then email the report to you.
You can view some sample reports below. Grades vary from A (excellent) to C (OK) to D & below, failing.
