Default Postal Barcodes in Word 2007

Hello

I am having some issues trying to set up my envelopes to create a zip
barcode like in previous versions of Word for Envelopes.

Am running Office Student Teacher 2007 on Vista..It apparently wants me to
buy an addon to create Postal Barcodes for zips codes on my envelopes... Is
there a workaround to this?

Default Postal Barcodes in Word 2007

See if you can (or they will allow you) purchase or get the program for Bar Codes from the US Post Office. They do have this Bar Code Program which they supply to many companies that do bulk zip code mailings.

If you have ever noticed, the barcodes that were printed in Word 2003 used
the ZIP+4. That is not sufficient for bulk mailing, i.e, there was no
Carrier Route and Delivery Point codes, etc. It did look cute and
"professional" but surved no purpose for the Postal Service. For that
reason, Microsoft removed the function.
