I'm looking for a good barcode plugin for illustrator. I've been using Yin4Yang's Barcode Toolbox since CS and its been great.

it adds the tool to your tool bar and has a simple toolbox window to type in your code. extreamly simple and works beautifully.

but i do not know if the same plugin will for for CS5 when I upgrade.

Does anyone know of a comparable Barcode plugin as good as that one?

or

Does anyone know if the Yin4Yang Barcode Toolbox works with CS5

thanks

    yes, that plugin is great... I am still using it  in CS3 and CS4.....

    How ever I am now using this stand alone app  fully integrated with adobe suite, and it is great too... see this link

    Thats a nice program.

    I might go for something like that.

    though i would rather just have the plug-in, right inside illustrator, I suppose this would be the next best thing.


    too bad its $200. I would like to have bought more than 1.

    I payed $49 for the plug in.

    thanks for link.

    2 questions.

    1. when you click the illustrator button, does it paste into an open document or create a new document?

    2. UPC -A and Code 128, does it have options to turn on or off boarder bars and text alignment?

    FYI ,  Barcode Producer by itsapparent is compatible with CS5

    I think version 6?

    Yin4Yang stopped supporting their product years ago and is now Instant Barcode:

    They say they are CS4 supported, but I would contact enfocus about CS5.
