I need to create a 15 digit barcode to go on the back covers of my booklets. As from 2023 the current Type 1 font that I use to create barcodes will no longer be supported by Adobe, so I cannot use it. Has anyone got suggestion for an alternative font?

A quick search finds many other vendors for OTF/TT versions of such fonts. This doesn't help for your legacy files, of course. Do you know who manufactured that font? Perhaps they have an OTF version now.

You could also convert the font you have to an OTF version. This, of course, assumes no license restrictions against doing so (e.g. I personally use TransType, but there are many type utilities, and even some free online converters)
