How do I re-size and print a barcode in Adobe Illustrator?

I know this is a very, very simple thing to do, however I have no experience in AI.  My barcode vendor generated barcode files that were in AI, so I have no choice but to work from them (I think.  I can choose from several file types but I chose jpeg and it generated the images in AI)  I need to re-size the barcode to fit a very small label: 1/2" X 3/4"- Avery 5418. 
Please help.   Thanks

Jane,
You need to create vector artwork to create and adapt/resize/edit barcodes properly.
You may have a look at the Illustrator forum where we have quite a few threads about different aspects of the subject.
Illustrator
You may type in barcode in the box called Type to filter by text and wait for the relevant ones to turn up. I have done it here:
Illustrator
This should show a number of threads, such as this one;
I am having trouble with scaling strokes in Illustrator CC 2014.
if you need help, I believe it is best to start a new one there.

    Experiment. No harm in trying.
    If you are just starting to use Pages you need to make your own assessment given current events whether committing your work to a format and software given this support is a wise move.
    You also need to look at what will produce workable results. Particularly if your large posters are to be commercially printed and contain large bitmap (photographic) images.
    Always work backwards from your output. Ask your printer what they require to do their job.

    These are HTML formatting questions. Nothing to do with the Oracle SQL and PL/SQL languages.
    With old-style HTML, the font size and family are set using the font tag.
    With modern style HTML, that is done using cascading style sheets (CSS).
    Your favourite search engine will turn up tons of information on both.

    Hi prettyboyfloyd,
    Are you referring to files saved in your Acrobat.com online account? If so, you can log in to your account at https://cloud.acrobat.com, and then select the file that you want to print. Click the Download link at the top of the file list. Once your file has downloaded, you can open and print it.

  • I customize my paper size and print size and am then viewing a photo on my screen. I print it out and it chops off about 5% of all edges of my original photo on the screen. Why does it do that? It is driving me crazy. I use an Epson Photo 2200 printer.

    What print and paper sizes are you using?  Are you trying to print a borderless print?  Does your printer support borderless for that particular size?  Are you printing to the custom stock size or to a larger stock size?

  • How to draw and modify double lines with Adobe Illustrator?

    I need tot draw roadmaps. This should be easy using the pen tool, but my problem is that I cannot find a way to draw double lines with this tool. I have seen many fancy border styles and patterns. Some do have double or even quadruple lines, but the problem is than that they have an offset from the vector line and the space in between the two lines (the edges of the road) cannot be filled. Somewere I also found some pens called 'Double line 1.1' to 'Double line 1.6' but they also had an offset from the vector and I could not chance the size of the lines and the interval in between them independently.
    What I am looking for is a way to draw two lines in parallel and have the option tot fill the space in between with a color or even a pattern.
    The color and size of the lines should be changeable to make a distinction between several types of road.
    Is there an existing set of pencils for this purpose? It would be nice to be able to draw not only roads, but also railways and rivers!
    I am surely not the first person who needs to do this?
    I use AI version 6

    Jacob,
    Thanks for the answer. I have been searching for a solutions for a long
    time, but today I found the solution on a forum (not on this one). That
    solution is exactly as you described below, i.e. using a coloured line and a
    narrower white line on top of the first one. My problem was that I did not
    know how to create a custom brush based on the two lines. Now I know how to
    do that. However, I still have the problem. I can now draw double lines and
    I can change the color of the background line (the coloured one) but I
    cannot change the white colour of the narrower line. I assume that I have to
    completely redefine a new brush when I need to change that colour too.
    Regards,
    Rob Kole

    pandron,
    One simple way would be to save as/print to PDF, then print from Acrobat/Reader.
    You could also make a copy of the file, then change the Artboard size and scale up the artwork and print from that (presuming you still wish to work in A4 or something).

  • How do you ungroup or expand a pie chart in Adobe Illustrator CS6?

    How do you ungroup or expand a pie chart in Adobe Illustrator CS6? This functionality seems to have been removed. Say I'd like to remove the legend: before, I could ungroup the chart, release its link to the data, and then delete the legend with my white mouse. Object > Expand no longer works either. This is supremely frustrating.

    In the end, I closed the dialogue box that shows the data, and was able to choose Object > Ungroup. Then it prompted me saying: "The selection contains a graph. After a graph is ungrouped you will no longer be able to access its graph style, its data or change its graph designs." - Which is what I was looking for. So in short, when the data is open, everything under Object will be greyed out. Additionally, Object > Expand no longer works in CS6.
    As a note, before I figured all this out, I resorted to a quick clipping mask to get rid of the legend, since selecting with the direct selection tool (A) and deleting was met with a 'you can't do that' prompt. That worked nicely, and kept the data.

    Thanks and Regards,

    Hello Ajaykumar,
    if I am not completely mistaking the 360° Appraisal uses the Adobe Forms.
    In this case the font can be set in the Adobe Live Cycle Designer by selecting "Palettes" -> "Font".

  • How to select page size and fit to page size?

    i am reading documentation here and feeling like a total dolt.
    can someone please remind me how i get my spreadsheet to print to my second printer and to get it to print in tray 1 with the 11 x 17 paper and how i get the spreadsheet to scale to fit this page size?
    i can't figure out if i am supposed to select the paper size first in the PRINT dialog but if i do this i can't figure out how to scale it and if i scale it i can't figure out how to get it off of 8 x 11 paper.

    hi wayne.
    i think you have a level of expertise with this software that let's you answer a question in a way that i don't understand. either that or perhaps as a new user my questions are not clear to you.
    can you tell me if it is possible to create a SETTING that will let me open a document that is SENT TO ME so that i don't have to run through all these steps just to do what i am asking to do in the title of this post? i mean, i am going to print this explanation out so i can refer to it in the future but i don't want to have to go through all these steps every time someone sends me a document.
    i also don't want to have to ask them to format the document as a pdf at 11 x 17 and 12 x 18 every time they send me something.
    does that question make sense?
    AFAIK your answer is indicating that i can set up a TEMPLATE that will let me /create/ new documents by using this template and what i am asking is if there is a way to print a document to 11 x 17 or to 12 x 18 with PRESETS as i do in Preview....
    can you help?
    THANKS!

  • How to extract the size and date from a given file

    Hi,
    I want to extract the size and date of a file (it can be either a video, audio or text file) that the user points to the location of. But I am not sure how. Does Java have an api that can do this? If not is there some other way of doing this? Can anyone help? Thanks in advance.

    Have a look at java.io.File, specifically
    public long lastModified()
    This format returned (I find) is nasty, so then use java.util.Date (or java.sql.Date, look the same on the surface to me) to format it.
    Cheers,
