Delivery address barcode missing

I just switch for Word 2003 to 2013 and was printing envelopes but do not see the Delivery Point Barcode that was is 2003.  How do

I find this option?

Answer
Answer

See The POSTNET bar code that Word generates no longer qualifies for USPS bulk mailing discounts.

For this reason, the delivery point barcode was removed from Word 2007 and later.

For info about the new barcodes, see Intelligent Mail Barcode for Mailpieces.

Adding to what Stefan said, Word 2013 does have two new barcode fields. I do not know that they meet the requirements of USPS. The new bar code fields do not accept the same input as the old one, though.
