-This package consists of
- BCFAQ.TEX (* Some more documentation)
- BARCODES.STY (* some often used macros for barcoding)
- CODE39.TEX (* macros in TeX for producing code 39 barcode,
- documented in itself)
- CODEAN.PL ( Preprocessor for EAN and code 128 (written in Perl))
- EANDOC.TEX (* Documentation for WLEAN.MF and CODEAN.PL)
- EXAMPLES.TEX (* demo sheet showing the use of all barcode fonts)
- WLC128.MF (* Raw Code 128 in Metafont format)
- WLC39.MF (* Metafont source for Code 39)
- WLC93.MF (* Metafont source for Code 93)
- WLC11.MF (* Metafont source for Code 11)
- WLEAN.MF (* Metafont source for EAN)
- WLCR39.MF (* Metafont source for Code 39 rotated running down)
- WLCDB.VPL ( virtual font for codabar barcode)
- WLITF.VPL ( virtual font for ITF barcode---interleaved
- 2 of 5)
- WLCF39.VPL ( virtual full ascii code 39)
- CHANGES ( text file listing the changes made)
- README ( this file)
- BARCODES.INS ( run this through TeX to make the files
- ( marked above with a star*)
- BARCODES.DTX ( required by barcodes.ins)
-
-At first you should run barcodes.ins through TeX to obtain the files
-marked above with an asterisk.
-
-To use wlitf and/or wlcdb, run it through vptovf, move the tfm and vf
-files, then in TeX say, e.g.
-
-\font\bcfont=wlitf scaled 2000
-{\bcfont+1234-}
-
-for ITF. The second line will print 1234 as ITF barcode.
-+ and - make the itf start and stop sign, respectively. Please note
-that ITF requires an even number of digits.
-
-For Code 39, you may use something like
-
-\font\bcfont=wlc39 scaled 2000
-{\bcfont @Hello\char32{}12345@}
-
-This will yield the word Hello, a space and the digits from one to five.
-Please note that the @ is used as start/stop sign in this font.
-
-Code 128 requires wlc128.mf to be copied to a place where metafont can
-find it. Also you should use codean.pl to preprocess your input.
-Read the docs, code 128 is somewhat complicated.
-
-One last example:
-
-\font\bcfont=wlcdb scaled 2000
-{\bcfont a5678t \qquad b2345n \qquad c6789* \qquad d1234e}
-
-The last two code lines show the use of codabar.
-Please note that the start/stop signs for codabar get decoded, too.
-
-Usage ist freely permitted, comments are welcome, any warranty is
-void. If you may find any inconveniences, bugs, or improvements, do
-not hesitate to tell me.
-
-Please note, the package is still far from complete.
-Especially, barcodes.sty needs lots of refinement and some documentation.
-Also, code 93 is not thoroughly tested.

-\section{Introduction}
-
-The barcode package itself can be found on {\tt ctan} in the
-subdirectory\\ {\tt fonts/barcodes/willadt}. It contains---among
-others---several fonts in {\sc vpl} format, so your {\sc dvi} driver
-should be able to handle virtual fonts. If it doesn't, you may perhaps
-use {\em dvicopy} to resolve the references to virtual fonts, or you
-may perhaps upgrade to a more modern \TeX{} package.
-
-\section{What about docs?}
-
-\subsection{Docs about barcodes}
-
-With the barcode package, there comes documentation about {\sc ean}
-fonts. In the README file, there are short examples of the use of
-the other fonts, too. Also the files {\tt examples.tex} shows the look
-and basic usage of the barcodes.
-
-In {\sl TUGboat}, barcoding has been covered in several
-articles \cite{bc:ean,bc:sauter,bc:vulis}. The barcode package itself
-is covered in an article that has appeared in the december issue,
-1997, of {\sl TUGboat}.
-
-\subsection{Some information about code 128}
-
-Code 128 is able to print all 128 ascii chars. There are a little more
-than a hundred glyphs that are interpreted in three different
-ways. Some of the glyphs are used as shift chars to determine which
-interpretation to use. A checksum is mandatory. To use it, you must
-install {\tt wlc128.mf}.
-
-The preprocessing---switching among the different character sets,
-coding efficiently, calculating the checksum---is handled by the
-newer versions of codean.pl. This is perhaps not as pleasing as to do
-it with \TeX{} alone, but, alas, it works.
-
-The way to run the preprocessor is described in {\tt eandoc.tex}. To
-use code 128, you have to write a line starting with {\tt\tbs cxxviii\{}
-followed by the characters you want to code and followed by a closing
-brace. Non-printing seven-bit ascii characters may be specified in hex
-in C or \TeX{} style, like {\tt\tbs x3f} or \verb|^^3f|. Anything up to
-the rightmost closing brace in this line will be coded---there is no
-brace matching. But you will get a warning message if your text
-includes a right brace. So you may want to code braces in hex form to
-avoid this message. Please note that {\tt codean.pl} does almost no
-checking for errors, so if you intend to produce garbage, there are
-lots of ways. If you need code 128 escape characters, they may be
-included as hex characters with codes starting at 0x80.
-
-\begin{tabular}{lllll}
-\em Input Code & \em C128 number &\multicolumn{3}{c}{\em meaning}\\
-\em(hex) & \em(dec.) & \em Set A & \em Set B & \em Set C\\
-0x80 & 96 & FNC3 & FNC3 & 96\\
-0x81 & 97 & FNC2 & FNC2 & 97\\
-0x82 & 98 & SHIFT & SHIFT & 98\\
-0x83 & 99 & CODE C& CODE C& 99\\
-0x84 & 100 & CODE B& FNC4 & CODE B\\
-0x85 & 101 & FNC4 & CODE A& CODE A\\
-0x86 & 102 & FNC1 & FNC1 & FNC1\\
-0x87 & 103 & START A& START A& START A\\
-0x88 & 104 & START B& START B& START B\\
-0x89 & 105 & START C& START C& START C\\
-0x8a & 106 & STOP & STOP & STOP
-\end{tabular}
-
-But please keep in mind that {\tt codean.pl} does almost anything for you,
-you should not have the need to insert start/stop codes and the
-like. Only if you use EAN128, you will need {\tt FNC1}. Just to make
-it clear: For your barcode to include {\tt FNC1} you have to write
-\verb|^^86| before preprocessing.
-
-{\tt codean.pl} will insert a sequence of hex digits; the original
-text will be appended to the line as a comment.
-Also, your \TeX{} file has to define some macros. They look like
-this:
-
-\begin{verbatim}
-\font\fntcxx=wlc128 scaled \magstep3
-\def\CXXVIII{\bgroup\fntcxx\let\next\hexchar\next}
-\def\cxxviii{\message{OOPS, use codean.pl}}
-\def\hexchar#1#2{\if#1@
- \global\let\next\egroup
- \else\char"#1#2\fi\next}
-\end{verbatim}
-
-If you do not like end recursion, you might use other ones. If
-you dislike the hex format produced by {\tt codean.pl}, you are free to
-change it---as long as you don't redistribute.
-
-\subsection{A little bit about code 11}
-
-Code 11 is a numeric-only barcode. It is almost as space-efficient as
-{\sc itf}, and it comes with a checksum. The checksum should be
-swallowed by the reading device. The checksum is a weighted mod-11
-checksum. There are apparently two kinds of checksum in use: such with
-one checkdigit and such with two checkdigits.
-
-To use code 11, you should include {\tt barcode.sty}. \TeX{} will
-calculate the checksum on its own. If you need two check digits, you
-should say\\
-{\tt\tbs codexichecksumktrue}.\\
-How many check digits you
-actually need should be made clear in the documentation to your
-reading device\footnote{You may also want to check the documentation
-to find out if your reading device supports code 11 at all; code 11 is
-not that common.}. You may code the digits 0--9, and the minus
-sign. The start and stop sign is mapped to the @ character. Here is a
-full example. {Please note: If you do not use \LaTeX{}, you may
-have to supply a definition for {\tt\tbs makeatletter}
-and {\tt\tbs makeatother}}:
-
-\begin{verbatim}
-\input barcodes.sty
-%% with two check digits
-\codexichecksumktrue
-\codxi{12-1234}
-
-%% with only one check digit.
-\codexichecksumkfalse
-\codxi{12-1234}
-\bye
-\end{verbatim}
-
-\subsection{About code 93}
-
-Code 93 is a little bit more compact than code 39 (as it uses also the
-gap between the characters), but in other aspects it is quite
-similiar. A checksum with two digits is mandatory. As with code 11,
-checksumming works by weighing the characters different depending on
-their position within the barcode.
-
-The version of code 93 that is included within the package resorts to
-uppercase ascii, digits, and to some other signs. Start and stop sign
-are mapped to {\tt<} and {\tt>}, respectively.
-
-Full ascii works similiar to full ascii with code 39 (that means with
-escape characters), but fortunately the escape characters are
-different from ordinary characters, so that you can hardly be
-misunderstood. Unfortunately the escape characters are named (\$),
-(\%), (/), and (+), so I decided to map them to opening and closing
-parentheses and brackets, respectively. This may not seem very clever
-when it comes to full ascii, but these characters may also appear as
-checksum characters, so we need them when doing uppercase ascii,
-too. For full ascii, it would be clever to redo the font in a
-completely different way and to map start sign, stop sign and the four
-escape characters to positions above 128, so that any 7 bit ascii
-character can be input directly.
-
-Code 93 is supported by codean.pl in the same way as ean or code 128
-are. You have to write {\tt\tbs xciii\{YOUR DATA 123\}}, run the file
-through {\tt codean.pl}, then you'll get\\
-{\tt\tbs XCIII\{YOUR DATA 123NN\}\%Code93(YOUR DATA 123)}
-
-The NN make up the two check characters. Normally, they are different,
-but in this example they are equal, by incident.
-
-\subsection{Docs about VPL Files}
-
-VPL files are documented in the files {\tt VPtoVF.WEB} and {\tt
-VFtoVP.WEB}. Both files can be found on {\sc ctan} under {\tt
-SYSTEMS/KNUTH}. {\em WEAVE} may be used to produce \TeX{} files. The
-documentation about the VPL/VF file formats is covered within the
-first few sections.
-
-\section{I want other metrics etc.}
-
-\subsection{My barcodes should have depth}
-
-You have got several possibilities to obtain depth. The most simple
-approach may be to set the barcodes with the regular barcode fonts into an
-{\tt\tbs hbox} and then to {\tt\tbs lower} this hbox.
-
-Let's look at an example:
-
-\begin{verbatim}
-\font\itf=wlitf scaled 1200
-\def\bcbox#1{\lower3pt\hbox{\itf +#1-}}
- Example:
-{\sc itf} barcode looks like \quad\bcbox{1009}\quad
-for 1009, e.g.
-\end{verbatim}
-
-This code yields the following result:
-
-{\sc itf} barcode looks like \quad\bcbox{1009}\quad for 1009, e.g.
-
-Another approach is to edit the font sources. In case of {\sc vpl}
-files, this is quite painful. Rules in {\sc vpl} files do not have
-depth, so you have to change the characters mapping in a way that you
-add a {\em movedown} before you draw, and a {\em moveup} afterwards.
-You may see the changes for an arbitrary character from {\tt
-WLITF.VPL}:
-
-\begin{verbatim}
-(CHARACTER D48
- (COMMENT from WLITF.VPL}
- (CHARWD D 14) (CHARHT R 10)
- (CHARDP R 0) (CHARIC R 0.0)
- (MAP
- (SETRULE R 14 R 1)(MOVERIGHT R 1)
- (SETRULE R 14 R 1)(MOVERIGHT R 1)
- (SETRULE R 14 R 2)(MOVERIGHT R 2)
- (SETRULE R 14 R 2)(MOVERIGHT R 2)
- (SETRULE R 14 R 1)(MOVERIGHT R 1)
- )
- )
-\end{verbatim}
-
-This character may be lowered by four units by editing in a way that the
-following lines result. Please note that there were not only the {\em
-moveup} and {\em movedown} commands added, but also the height an
-depth have been changed.
-
-\begin{verbatim}
-(CHARACTER D48
- (COMMENT Lowered to give some depth)
- (CHARWD D 14) (CHARHT R 10)
- (CHARDP R 4) (CHARIC R 0.0)
- (MAP
- (MOVEDOWN R 4)
- (SETRULE R 14 R 1)(MOVERIGHT R 1)
- (SETRULE R 14 R 1)(MOVERIGHT R 1)
- (SETRULE R 14 R 2)(MOVERIGHT R 2)
- (SETRULE R 14 R 2)(MOVERIGHT R 2)
- (SETRULE R 14 R 1)(MOVERIGHT R 1)
- (MOVEUP R 4)
- )
- )
-\end{verbatim}
-
-\subsection{My barcodes are too tall}
-
-For the sake of the person who has to scan the barcodes, barcodes just
-can't be tall enough. If the complete code is as tall as wide, the
-reading device can be twisted against the code at an angle of 45
-degrees. If they are half as high, the angle reduces to 26 degrees.
-
-If you really want short codes, you have to edit the sources. In the
-{\sc vpl} file, you have to change the {\em charht} and the first parameter
-to the {\em setrule} command at well. You also should change the {\em
-designsize} parameter.
-
-\subsection{My barcodes are not tall enough}
-
-You may also change the sources, like described in the previous
-subsection. But there is another solution that is perhaps more
-practical. The idea is simple that double black is still black and
-that you may overlay several printouts of the same barcode. Here is
-the example code (it may be made taller by adding more copies of the
-barcode box, of course). There is an extra dimension {\em bcboxdepth}
-added to yield depth for the barcodes.
-
-\begin{verbatim}
-\newbox\bsavebox
-\newdimen\bcboxdepth
-\bcboxdepth=4pt
-\def\bdbox#1{\setbox\bsavebox\hbox{\itf +#1-}
-\vbox{\hsize=\wd\bsavebox\copy\bsavebox%
-\vskip-\ht\bsavebox\vskip\bcboxdepth%
-\box\bsavebox\vskip-\bcboxdepth}}
-\def\bebox#1{\setbox\bsavebox\hbox{\itf +#1-}
-\vbox{\hsize=\wd\bsavebox\copy\bsavebox%
-\vskip0pt\copy\bsavebox%
-\vskip-\ht\bsavebox\vskip\bcboxdepth%
-\box\bsavebox\vskip-\bcboxdepth}}
- Example:
-Tall {\sc itf} barcode looks like \quad\bdbox{1009}\quad
-or (still taller) \quad\bebox{1009}\quad for 1009, e.g.
-\end{verbatim}
-
-And here is the result, you may compare it with the output of the
-previous example:
-
-Tall {\sc itf} barcode looks like \quad\bdbox{1009}\quad or (still
-taller) \quad\bebox{1009}\quad for 1009, e.g.
-
-\subsection{My barcodes are too wide/too narrow}
-
-Perhaps you should change the barcode size (by changing
-{\tt\tbs magnification}) and then read the subsections above about too
-tall bars and bars that are not tall enough.
-
-\subsection{My barcodes should run vertically}
-
-Vertically oriented barcode is a good idea for cans, bottles and
-similiar things.
-
-It just depends on your {\sc dvi} driver. Perhaps there is a
-possibility to handle rotation via {\tt\tbs special}, as with {\em
-dvips} and the {\em rotate} macros. For experimantal purposes I have
-included a code 39 version running down instead right ({\tt
-wlcr39.mf}). You may perhaps use it with {\tt\tbs shortstack} or
-similiar. Here is some code I used (successfully) with plain \TeX:
-
-\begin{verbatim}
-\font\testfont=wlcr39 scaled 1200
-\def\bcbax{\let\next\bcbox\vbox\bgroup
- \offinterlineskip\testfont\setbox0\hbox{@}\hsize=\wd0
- \noindent{}@\hfil\break\next}
-\def\fertig{@\hfil\break\egroup}
-\def\bcbox#1{\if @#1\let\next\fertig\else#1\hfil\break\fi\next}
-
-Look buddy, this is \bcbax1406632@ code 39
-stacked and running downwards.
-\end{verbatim}
-
-\subsection{I heard something about full ascii code 39}
-
-Well, umh, now that you ask\dots The truth is: You may perhaps be able to
-configure your reading device to accept full ascii code~39. Then you may
-code any 7~bit character you may think of. The bad news is that most of
-the symbols have to be coded by two
-characters -- and as code 39 has already low density, you should not
-expect to get much use of it. Perhaps you might want to try code 128
-instead---it features full 7-bit ascii without any compromise.
-
-Another anti-feature is that switching to reading full-ascii code~39
-may lead to some bad reads of `normal' code~39. In full ascii, the lower
-case letters, e.g., are made by prepending the uppercase letters with a
-plus sign, so {\tt+A} is read as {\tt a}. So, if you have got regular
-code~39 that contains such character sequences, and you have switched
-your reading device to full ascii, you may get bad results.
-
-But, now that you want it: With the barcode package there comes a font
-{\tt wlcf39.vpl}. You may install it like the other vpl files. It has got
-132 characters and has already taken all the coding for full ascii, so
-when you typ {\tt e,\$4+A}, it will silently be mapped to what you
-would have typed as {\tt+E/L/D/KA}, if you would use the plain code~39
-format\footnote{Please take note: 6 characters are blown up to 9,
-think again about using another code}. In my version of full ascii
-code~39, the start/stop sign is mapped to @@ (or \verb|\char128|). So
-you actually had to add @@ to the front and the end of the example
-string. If you can not exclude that the character sequence @@ appears
-within the text you want to code, you have to avoid ligature
-processing. You may do that like this:
-
-\begin{verbatim}
-\font\fullas=wlcf39 scaled 1728
-\def\alphanolig{\char64\kern0pt}
-\def\printacode#1{{\fullas@@{\catcode`\@=\active%
-\let @=\alphanolig#1}@@}}
-\end{verbatim}
-
-You also have to escape or circumscribe special characters to make
-them really printable, of course, so that when you wanted a backspace,
-a tab, a space, a dollar sign, a percent sign, and a bell character to
-be coded, you would type something like
-
-\begin{verbatim}
-{\fullas @@\char8\char9\char32\$\%\char7}
-\end{verbatim}
-
-\section{Troubleshooting}
-
-\subsection{My barcodes can't be decoded}
-
-At first, try to make them larger. If that does't help, make them
-larger, again. If that will not help, obtain fonts in \TeX{} or
-Metafont format and make them brighter. Or, perhaps better, obtain a
-better printer.
-
-You also should check the contrast between bars and background,
-especially when using a dot matrix printer or coloured background
-or---still worse---red bars.
-
-\subsection{My decoder reads extra digits, sometimes}
-
-I guess you use {\sc itf} barcode with a number of digits that is
-sometimes even and sometimes odd. As {\sc itf} always codes two digits
-at once, you should take care just to code an even number of digits at
-any time. If an excess zero at the beginning of your number is not
-acceptable, you might try another kind of barcode instead of {\sc
-itf}.
-
-\section{Missing items}
-
-\subsection{I am missing two-of-five}
-
-I got specs for two-of-five (three bars). If you want it, let me know;
-I might implement it. For other kinds of two-of-five, I haven't got
-complete specs.
-
-\subsection{I am missing plessey}
-
-I got the specs but I haven't yet got the time to implement them. With
-plessey, there also rise several questions due to the fact that
-plessey has never been officialy standardized. The only thing that is
-absolutely sure about plessey is how binary ones and zeros are
-encoded. There are codes that are more wide-spread. Several modern
-barcode readers can't cope with plessey code.
-
-\subsection{I am missing \dots{} some other barcode}
-
-I have checked out several two-dimensional barcodes. But for most of
-them, support by \TeX{} seems to be rather pointless. Perhaps Metafont
-could be called any time you have to code something to draw the
-symbols, but you might as well use a custom drawing program that comes
-from the barcode vendor. Also, most two-dimensional barcodes (and
-other barcodes not mentioned here) are proprietary. Last not least the
-reading devices I have access to can deal only with a finite range of
-barcodes.
-
-I am sorry, but I haven't got the specs for further barcodes
-not mentioned here. If you could be so kind as to send them to me, I
-might perhaps implement them.
-

-\subsection{EAN without preprocessing}
-
-The following code is due to Kalvis M. Jansons.
-
-It handles printing of {\sc ean} without having to run a
-preprocessor. Not only are the {\sc ean} bars drawn, also the checksum
-checksum is checked. It can be easily
-adapted to non-\LaTeX{} use by omitting anything before \verb|\font|

-\section{About {\sc ean}}
-
-In stores, {\sc upc} and {\sc ean} codes are widely used for automatic
-identification, pricing etc. {\sc ean} consist of either eight or
-thirteen digits. Twelve digit {\sc upc} codes are like thirteen digit
-{\sc ean} with the first digit equal to zero. {\sc ean} specifications
-do not only
-require bars, also the encoded number has to be written in plain text,
-in case a reader is defective or the code is too hard to read. {\sc
-ean} is a high-density code, and so it is highly vulnerable.
-
-\subsection{Coding}
-
-The last digit of an {\sc ean} is a weighted mod 10 checksum. Digits
-are alternatingly multiplied by 1 or 3. The so calculated sum over all
-digits has to be divisible by ten without any remainder.
-
-There are three different {\sc ean} character sets labeled A, B, and
-C. Eight digit {\sc ean} codes use character sets A and C, {\sc ean}
-codes with thirteen digits use all three character sets---see below.
-
-\begin{verse}
-{\sc ean} with eight digits consists of:\\
-a sidebar\\
-the first four digits (coded in character set A),\\
-the middle separator,\\
-the other four digits (coded in character set C)\\
-another sidebar.
-\end{verse}
-
-The first half of an {\sc ean} code with thirteen digits is coded in
-the character sets A and B, the second half in character set C. The
-coding of the very first digit is hidden in the varying use of the
-character sets A and B. A C programmer might use the following table
-and algorithm to decide which character set to use for digits 2--7:
-
-\begin{verbatim}
-static UBYTE abtab[10][6]={
- {0,0,0,0,0,0}, /* 0 */
- {0,0,1,0,1,1}, /* 1 */
- {0,0,1,1,0,1}, /* 2 */
- {0,0,1,1,1,0}, /* 3 */
- {0,1,0,0,1,1}, /* 4 */
- {0,1,1,0,0,1}, /* 5 */
- {0,1,1,1,0,0}, /* 6 */
- {0,1,0,1,0,1}, /* 7 */
- {0,1,0,1,1,0}, /* 8 */
- {0,1,1,0,1,0} /* 9 */
-};
-
-char eancode[18];
-char eansource[14]="4025700001030";
-
-eancode[0]=eansource[0];
-eancode[1]=' ';
-eancode[2]='+';
-for(i=1;i<7;i++)
- eancode[i+2]='A'+eansource[i]-'0'
- +abtab[eansource[0]-'0'][i-1]*('a'-'A');
-/* then the middle separator, digits 7--13,
- * and the final + sign */
-\end{verbatim}
-
-A zero means to use character set A and a one means to use character
-set B for the respective digit. The printed code of an {\sc ean} 13
-consist of the following elements, from left to right:
-
-\begin{verse}
-The first digit in human-readable form\\
-an {\sc ean} sidebar\\
-six digits in character sets A or B\\
-the {\sc ean} middle separator\\
-six digits in character set C\\
-another {\sc ean} sidebar
-\end{verse}
-
-Magazines or codes with pricing have a so called extension following
-the main code with some fixed distance. This extension consists of one
-sidebar and two or five digits. As I have no full {\sc ean}
-documentation at hand at the time of this writing, I am sorry that I
-am not able to tell you more about this.
-
-The {\sc ean} digits themselves obey to the following rules: Each
-digit takes seven units of space. Some of the seven elements are
-white, others are black. Digits from character set A always are white
-at the left edge and black at the right, and they always have an odd numer
-of black elements. Digits from character set B are quit similiar, but
-they have an even number of black elements. Digits from Character set C
-always start with a black element and have an even number of
-black elements. The rightmost element in character set C is always white.
-The sidebars are three elements wide, the middle separator takes five
-elements.
-
-\subsection{What {\sc ean} numbers may I use?}
-
-For inhouse use, you may use any 13-digit {\sc ean} that starts with a
-2. If you want to have your products sold elsewhere, you have to buy a
-set of {\sc ean} numbers from the organisation in your country that
-holds these numbers. For germany, this organisation is the {\em
-Zentrale f\"ur Coorganisation} in Cologne. Almost any country has a
-similiar organisation.
-
-The first digit or sometimes the first two digits code the country of
-origin, the next five to six digits code the manufacturer, the eigth
-to twelfth digits are for free use by the manufacturer. The
-thirteenth digit is, as explained above, a checksum. {\sc ean} do not
-contain any qualifiers, so if you get an {\sc ean} from somewhere, you
-may find out about the country of origin and about the manufacturer of
-the product, but if you want to know more, you have to contact the
-manufacturer.
-
-\section{Using {\tt wlean.mf}}
-
-{\tt wlean.mf} is rather raw. It contains all three {\sc ean}
-character sets within one single font, but at different places.
-The character sets A, B, C, and the digits are
-featured through the following characters:
-
-\begin{verse}
-0 to 9 yield the digits from 0 to 9\\
-A to J yield the codes from character set A\\
-a to j yield the codes from character set B\\
-K to T yield the codes from character set C\\
-+ makes the left and right sidebar and\\
-- makes the middle sign
-\end{verse}
-
-So, to code the number {\tt 2099993098253}, you have to write\\
-\verb*|{\eanfont2 +AJjjJd-KTSMPN+}|. The space is necessary to separate
-the leading 2 from the barcode.
-
-{\tt wlean.mf} does not use true {\sc ocr} digits, as it should. As
-the digits will not be used for {\sc ocr}, I do not consider this as
-a serious restriction. If you really need {\sc ocr} digits, there is
-an {\sc ocr} font on {\sc ctan}. And in {\em TUGboat}, there has been
-a publication about {\sc ean}, where \TeX{} draws the bars and
-the {\sc ocr} font prints the digits, see [1].
-
-{\tt wlean.mf} uses the normal {\sc ean} dimensions. If you would like
-lower bars---in contradiction to the {\sc ean} rules---you have to edit
-the source. The rules also make recommendations about the scaling. To
-be fully compatible, this font may be scaled 0.8, 0.9, 1, 1.2, 1.4,
-1.5, 1.7, 1.85, or 2 times the original size. With a 300 dpi printer,
-I do not recommend using sizes$<1.0$.
-
-\subsection{Installation}
-
-The installation itself is pretty mundane, like with any plain font.
-Just copy {\tt wlean.mf} to a location where Metafont can find
-it. Then invoke Metafont to create a {\sc tfm} file. Move this {\sc
-tfm} file where \TeX{} can find it. Type in the example at the end of
-this file and run it through \TeX{}. Then call Metafont again to
-produce a font suitable for your printer or previewer and move this
-font to an appropriate location. You may also want to edit {\tt
-codean.pl} to run on your shell. For this purpose you have to read
-your system's documentation or the documentation that comes with Perl.
-
-\subsection{Making readable output}
-
-Don't make {\sc ean} too small. With a 300 dpi printer, you should not
-use this font with magnification$<1$; {\tt scaled 1200} will be okay.
-If you want to do mass production, go to somebody with a barcode
-reader and check your output, {\em before} you loose money. You also
-should consider changes in the blackness that may be caused by
-production printing devices. And, of course, you should only use
-colours that can be used with barcode reading devices. Especially, do
-not use red and watch for much contrast between the colour you print
-and the colour of the paper.
-
-\subsection{Coding the numbers}
-
-You will perhaps not want to write something as ugly and error-prone
-as \verb*|{\eanfont2 +AJjjJd-KTSMPN+}| manually. So you have to use a
-preprocessor\footnote{See bcfaq.tex for \TeX{} code to go without
-preprocessing. It is very fine.}. With {\tt wlean.mf} there comes a
-tiny Perl program ({\tt codean.pl}) that does preprocessing within
-your \TeX{} sources\footnote{codean.pl in the meantime also handles
-code 128. See bcfaq.tex}.
-
-The \TeX{} file to be filtered may contain any number of lines
-that have one of the following commands starting at the leftmost position.
-
-\begin{itemize}
-\item \verb|\ean{|{\em12 or 13 digit number}\verb|}|
-The number will be coded as {\sc ean}. If it is only 12 digits long, the
-checksum will be calculated, too.
-
-\item \verb|\embed{|{\em12 or 13 digit number}\verb|}|
-The number is used as a base for embedding article numbers \&c.\
-within an {\sc ean}.
-
-\item \verb|\eean{|{\em number with at most 11 digits}\verb|}|
-This number is to be embedded within an {\sc ean}.
-
-\item \verb|\isbn{|{\em valid ISBN}\verb|}| An {\sc isbn} to
-make an embedded {\sc ean} of.
-\end{itemize}
-
-Let's look at an example: You want the {\sc isbn} {\tt0-201-13448-9}
-to be embedded. So you write \verb|\isbn{0201134489}|, but you might
-also use the embedding method and write
-\verb|\embed{9780000000000}| and, somewhere later in the file,
-\verb|\eean{020113448}|. In this latter case you have to omit the last digit,
-as {\sc isbn} loose their check digit in favour of the {\sc ean} check digit.
-Anyway you do it, you get your command replaced by
-\verb|\EAN{|{\em13-digit-number-coded-strange}\verb|}| in the output
-file.
-
-But embedding is especially useful if you also write the program that
-reads the barcodes. This program might then extract your article
-number from an {\sc ean} starting with {\tt20}, eg.
-
-What you have to do is, of course, to use stub definitions for the
-three macros mentioned above---as they shall never actually be
-typeset---and to use a valid definition for \verb|\EAN|. Then you run
-your \TeX{} source through {\tt codean.pl}. This program takes as
-first parameter the name of your original file and as second parameter
-the name of your destination file. If you omit the parameters, you will
-be asked for them.
-
-You may of course also peek the source of {\tt codean.pl} to see how
-{\sc ean} checksums are calculated, and so on.
-
-\subsection{Example}
-
-Here is a full example.
-Use this \TeX{} source:
-
-\begin{verbatim}
-\font\eanfont=WLEAN
-\def\ean#1{\message{Call codean.pl}}
-\def\eean#1{\message{Call codean.pl}}
-\def\isbn#1{\message{Call codean.pl}}
-\def\embed#1{}
-\def\EAN#1{\vbox{\vskip10pt\eanfont#1\vskip10pt}}
- Now, something to do:
-\ean{4025700001030} % or, without checksum:
-\ean{402570000103}
-\embed{2500000000000}
-\eean{123}
-\isbn{0201134489}
-\end{verbatim}
-
-Having run your file through {\tt codean.pl}, the lines after the percent
-sign look like this:
-
-\begin{verbatim}
- Now, something to do:
-\EAN{4 +AcFHaa-KKLKNK+} % or, without checksum: %(4025700001030)
-\EAN{4 +AcFHaa-KKLKNK+} %(402570000103)
-\embed{2500000000000}
-\EAN{2 +FAaaAa-KKLMNT+} % embedded(123)
-\EAN{9 +HiaCaB-LNOOSN+} % ISBN(0201134489)
-\end{verbatim}
-
-Running this file through \TeX{}, you get {\sc dvi} output containig
-{\sc ean} barcodes. Perhaps you wonder why there is not even a
-single {\sc ean} contained within this documentation. The reason is
-quite simple: You should be able to read the docs {\em before} you
-have installed the font. But now is the right time to try the example
-on your own. Better yet, you may code an {\sc ean} where you have
-taken the number from something like your favourite candy and then,
-having printed it, you may compare the bars. This is a nice way to
-spend your evenings. I actually started deciphering {\sc ean} codes in
-this way, several years ago.
-

-%% Here we go
-\parindent0pt
-Hello, this is a test sheet of the barcode fonts.
-
-At first, we deal with code 39. Code 39 is represented in this package
-both in form of a native font (Metafont-source) and in form of
-\TeX{}-macros. code 39 features low-density alphanumeric encoding.
-
-Here you may see how HELLO looks like in code 39 (the start and stop
-sign is mapped to @, if you're curious, so in the source to this sheet
-I have written {\tt@HELLO@} after having selected the proper
-font). This first example uses the font.
-
-{\xlix@HELLO@}
-
-Another approach is to use \TeX{} macros to make up bars. Here is the
-same HELLO with macros:
-
-\begincodethirtynine{HELLO}\endcodethirtynine
-
-Interleaved two-of-five (ITF for short) features high-density
-numerical-only encoding. Your code has to have an even number of
-digits. The start sign is mapped to $+$, the end sign to $-$.
-So, to code 0123456789, you type {\tt+0123456789-}, and the result
-looks like this:
-
-{\itf+0123456789-}
-
-If you still have not got enough of barcoding, here is codabar. Here
-you got four sets of start/stop signs that get decoded together with
-the numbers. The start/stop sign pairs are a/t, b/n, c/*, and d/e. So
-{\tt a12345t} looks like this:\bigskip
-
-{\cdb a12345t}
-
-Now you should have a look at code 128. The bars itself look sometimes
-disrupted; this is due to the fact that the widest elements are four
-times as wide as the narrowest. Code 128 enables you to code any 7-bit
-ascii character. With digits only, it is as efficent as itf. The bad
-news is the preprocessing required, so you have to read the docs. The
-following bars mean {\tt Hallo123456}\bigskip
-
-\CXXVIII 6828414C4C4F630C2238506A@@ % Code128(Hallo123456)
-
-And, last and perhaps most important, the EAN font. Read {\tt
-eandoc.tex} to find out how these are coded, here is just the output
-of the example code mentioned there:
-\embed{2500000000000}
-
-\line{
-\EAN{4 +AcFHaa-KKLKNK+} % or, without checksum: %(4025700001030)
-\hfil
-\EAN{4 +AcFHaa-KKLKNK+} %(402570000103)
-}
-\line{
-\EAN{2 +FAaaAa-KKLMNT+} % embedded(123)
-\hfil
-\EAN{9 +HiaCaB-LNOOSN+} % ISBN(0201134489)
-}
-
-And that's all. Perhaps you may think that this is not a beautiful
-document---but barcodes aren't beautiful. As long as reading devices
-do not have \ae{}sthetic feelings, I don't regard this as a problem.
-\bye
