Hi everyone,
I am trying to gather information about how do barcodes function in PCL and am a bit confused.
How do barcodes actually look like in a usual PCL datastream? I have some PCL file examples
where barcodes are described with just normal rectangles and numbers, but as far as I understand
this is not typical nowadays. Are they just another type of fonts and are included in PCL datastream
as soft fonts of special type? I am reading about some special barcode modules which are meant
to enable barcoding in PCL files. What do these modules do? I would be also gratefule for some
examples of PCL files with modern barcodes. Where could I find such examples?
Thank you very much in advance for your help,
Yuliana
