2D Bar Code

I am filing a paper return for a deceased person. The condensed version prints out with the keying summary but does not contain a 2D bar code as it did for another paper filed return I prepared. Will CRA be able to process the condensed return properly without the bar code? If I need it how do I fix it?

Think I just found the answer to my own question online posted by another software provider.

Apparently if a T1 is available to efile, a bar code will print; however if the return is required to be paper filed, no bar code prints. Deceased person's returns must be paper filed, so the software was correct in not generating a bar code.
