- NAME
- pbmupc - create a Universal Product Code bitmap
-
- SYNOPSIS
- pbmupc [-s1|-s2] <type> <manufac> <product>
-
- DESCRIPTION
- Generates a Universal Product Code symbol. The three argu-
- ments are: a one digit product type, a five digit manufac-
- turer code, and a five digit product code. For example, "0
- 72890 00011" is the code for Heineken.
-
- The -s1 and -s2 flags select the style of UPC to generate.
- The default, -s1, looks more or less like this:
- ||||||||||||||||
- ||||||||||||||||
- ||||||||||||||||
- ||||||||||||||||
- 0||12345||67890||5
- The other style, -s2, puts the product type digit higher up,
- and doesn't display the checksum digit:
- ||||||||||||||||
- ||||||||||||||||
- 0||||||||||||||||
- ||||||||||||||||
- ||12345||67890||
-
- As presently configured, pbmupc produces a bitmap 230 bits
- wide and 175 bits high. The size can be altered by changing
- the defines at the beginning of the program, or by running
- the output through pnmenlarge or ppmscale.
