Assuming you’re talking about blurring due to raster images, wouldn’t vector images solve that? A font is (generally) just that: vectors, not pixels.

- mrweasel 6y agoNo, not blurring, you can only "stretch" a barcode so far, before the spacing confuses the scanner. The issue we faced was a bit stupid and a result of trying to save money. The type of barcode we used, and I forget the type, was actually a little to large for the labels we wanted to use, and the labels where very skinny. Trying to maximize the size of the barcode, so our cheap scanner would read the, meant pushing the barcode almost to the edge of the label. That involved fiddling with the size and margins on the Zebra printers, and if you don't get it right the scanner would either fail to read the barcode because the margin was to small (at least our cheap scanners require a margin of some minimal size to identify where the bars start) or the lines where to short and scanners can't read the bars if they're to short.
- mark-r 6y agoThe barcode standards themselves specify the amount of white space you need before and after the barcode proper. Even the cheapest scanners should work if you met that.
