Graphic art recreation of labels with bar-codes?

Posted on November 1st, 2010 by David Montgomery Jr.
I’m a new graphic artist. I’m trying to recreate labels with bar-codes to be printed on plastic poly bags. My two real questions are… how can I create “camera-ready” artwork (is this just referring to an Illustrator or InDesign file?) annnnnd… do I just leave a blank spot for the bar-codes or is there a way I can place them myself? Will I need a file image of the bar-codes? PLEASE help! Thank you!! :)

I have a small graphic arts business and am thinking about getting a company car. It’s not for status but for functionality (right now my personal car is a 97 and isnt roomy or dependable enough for moving around equipment). I was thinking something along an scion xb as it could easily be car wrapped and I would have a mobile advertisment (instead shelling out MUCH more in adds in newspapers and magazines).
