Code39Azalea is a barcode font that creates Code 39 (Code 3 of 9) barcodes. It's an OpenType font in both TrueType (.ttf) and PostScript (.otf) format. It can be used on Windows and OS X computers, and both in print and as a web font.

Code39Azalea is numeric and therefore prints Code 39 barcodes that contain only numbers. Code39Azalea supports a subset of the full Code 39 character set.

The font includes the digits 0-9 and the asterisk, which is the Code 39 start and stop bar. Create a barcode by adding an asterisk before and after your numeric string.
*314159* formatted into Code39Azalea will scan as 314159

The point size you use determines the height of the bars. Format text at 72 points and the bars will be 1" tall, format at 36 points 1/2", etc.

Install this font like any other TrueType or PostScript font. It will then be available within any Windows or OS X application.
