[Tutor] Creating barcodes

[Alan Trautman]

What kind of barcode do they want top use? It's easy enough to purchase TTF
in chr128a-g (United States Postal Service but don't worry it's quite
universal) format which are used just like a font and will be easy to
incorporate into anything that can handle character fonts. Pure 3d and newer
USPS fonts must be rendered and will be much harder to provide preview for
but, depending on the algorithm you could generate the code yourself to
postscript and figure out how to display it from there. I would recommend a
much better definition of bar code from your client there a several hundred
available formats that you can select from.

HTH,
Alan

One of my client ask me to make an application for creating, viewing then
printing barcodes in Windows environment. Is there any python modules that
would help me to create such application? 



Thanks.
