    I've been using GS1 barcode in Excel, when I worked with a list of products and prices. Is there any way to encode GS1 barcode like GS1-128 barcode in Word. If it is possible, do I need to install barcode font? If not, what should I do?

    Both barcode fonts and word add-in to generate barcode will be OK. I tried word add-in for GS1 128, it works well. Easy to convert number into barcode, and could change size and fonts of barcode, funny.

    You can use the barcode font to generate GS1 barcode, or like wise, you can install a barcode control.

    Seems easy to draw barcode. How could I draw many barcodes at one time? Like a list?

    I have generated barcode in word using barcode control. It is quite easy to install a barcode control. Google and you will find some good controls for creating barcode.
