Printing Intelligent Bar codes

Well how is everyone out there?  I haven't posted in a while but this 
issue is making me crazy.

I am trying to setup a filepro Application to print the Intelligent 
barcodes.  Has anyone successfully set this up on a Windows platform and 
could provide some support.  I downloaded the fonts and Encoding 
software but I can not seem to get either to work using their instructions.

My first issue is just getting something to print right.

I made a print code:

$1b *c32545D %"UC23HL.FNT" $1b *c5F

I expect that should upload the font file calling the font 32545.

Then

$1b (3254X     should be the code I would put prior to the data that 
needs to be printed in this font.

I got a sample barcode string:

FDFFFATTTADDADAFFTFTDAFTDFFDTDAATFFDDTTFADTTFTDDDFFFFTTATAAFDDAAA

That should print a barcode.

It does not seem to work.
I understand the basics.  I need some kind of encoder that I can use to 
feed data (I guess the zipcode) and will get back the crazy kind of 
string that I can print.  Since I can not compile the civp.exe file as 
they instruct, I am unable to get that wokring yet.  I thought I would 
see if the bar code will print but that does not work either.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
