Libre Barcode 39 in Templates

AppSheet AppSheet Q&A
1

Hey all,

I have seen others successfully add barcodes to their templates (I’ve seen this post specifically https://www.googlecloudcommunity.com/gc/AppSheet-Q-A/Libre-Barcode-39-in-Google-Doc-Template/m-p/275986#M54830). My question is why is it not working in my templates?

Specifically, I’ve added the barcode font in Google Docs, and I am trying to set the font in a Document that a client has shared with me (So the document doesn’t belong to me, I am an editor).

So I have the font, I’ve set it up in the document, it looks all well and good…

but when I run it in AppSheet I get this…

And checking the Audit History shows the template does not have custom fonts

So is it because I’m not the Document Owner that the font doesn’t apply to the template? Or am I missing a fundamental piece somewhere else?

I did have success following the advice here https://www.googlecloudcommunity.com/gc/Tips-Tricks/Generating-Barcodes/m-p/359964 so I do have a barcode using a service, but I’m curious why the font isn’t working.

BUG

Libre Barcode 39 Text doesn’t seem to work anymore with Google Doc Templates. The output is just like in the OP by @RobertB
Even though the custom font is included in the HTML file, as explained here:
https://support.google.com/appsheet/answer/11572062?hl=en

This is the part I get from “@import url”:

As you see, Libre Barcode 39 Text is included. But the output is just text, no barcode.
