Barcodes

Hi,

Has anyone had experience with barcodes (creating, printing, scanning etc) with linux? It would be great if you could share your experiences and the pro/cons of it all.

Arch seems to be very limited with barcode software atm.

Some links I have found:
http://www.kbarcode.net/
http://www.terryburton.co.uk/barcodewriter/
http://www.barcodeisland.com/
http://www.unibar.com/
http://graphics.tudelft.nl/~jorik/css/barcode.html
http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/graphic … t-barcode/

Thank you.

Re: Barcodes

Hi
in the past i used
http://www.archlinux.org/packages/search/?q=barcode
this tool to create the barcodes i needed (8 per page in 4 Rows on a DIN A 4 paper)
create the barcodes you need to ps and convert them afterward to pdf (or print the ps directly)

to scan the barcodes i configured my barcodescanner to emulate an usb keyboard..
