 Last reviewed: November 17, 1997
Article ID: Q128987
The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Word for Windows, versions 6.0, 6.0a, 6.0c
  • Microsoft Word for the Macintosh, versions 6.0, 6.0.1

SUMMARY

Word's online Help incorrectly indicates that FIM-C bar codes are available in Word.

MORE INFORMATION

FIM-C bar codes are for Business Reply Mail and indicate that postage has been paid by the addressee. An example can be seen in the "Printing Special Text and Graphics on an Envelope" section of the "Printing" chapter in the "Microsoft Word User's Guide." The horizontal lines under the "NO POSTAGE NECESSARY" insignia in the right example are a FIM-C code. This feature is not available in Word.
