Variable-Data Barcode Labels: Printed label example.

Overview

Approve the data as carefully as the artwork.

A variable-data project combines the label design with a controlled set of changing records. Define the numbering, code content, format and expected quantity before generating the final print file.

Choose a stock and print treatment that give the code enough contrast. Review a data sample, scan printed proofs and agree how missing, duplicated or out-of-sequence records are checked.
