+GNU Barcode is meant to solve most needs in barcode creation with a
+conventional printer. It can create printouts for the conventional
+product tagging standards: UPC-A, UPC-E, EAN-13, EAN-8, ISBN, as well
+as a few other formats. Output is generated as either Postscript or
+Encapsulated Postscript (other back-ends may be added if needed).
