pbmupc(1) AMIGA (14 March 1989) pbmupc(1)
NAME
pbmupc - create a Universal Product Code bitmap
SYNOPSIS
pbmupc [-s1|-s2] type manufac product
DESCRIPTION
Generates a Universal Product Code symbol. The three
arguments are: a one digit product type, a five digit
manufacturer code, and a five digit product code. For
example, "0 72890 00011" is the code for Heineken.
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 pnmscale.
OPTIONS
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||
