I just run a test and PostNet barcode printed on my report is the same lenght as on the mail I receieve today (ZIP+4 - 9 digits). Maybe you want 11 digits code, wich includes 2 digits Delivery point code? Is that the case, than you've to find software or buy list from USPS that includes Delivery point codes. See
