DESCRIPTION¶
GD::Barcode is a subclass of GD and allows you to create barcode image with GD. This module based on "Generate Barcode Ver 1.02 By Shisei Hanai 97/08/22".
From 1.14, you can use this module even if no GD (except plot method).

$oGd = $oGdBar->plot([Height => $iHeight, NoText => 0 | 1]);
creates GD object with barcode image for the $sTxt specified at new method. $iHeight is height of the image. If NoText is 1, the image has no text image of $sTxt.
ex.
my $oGdB = GD::Barcode->new('EAN13', '123456789012');
my $oGD = $oGdB->plot(NoText=>1, Height => 20);
# $sGD is a GD image with Height=>20 pixels, with no text.
barcode()¶
$sPtn = $oGdBar->barcode();
returns a barcode pattern in string with '1' and '0'. '1' means black, '0' means white.

my $oGdB = GD::Barcode->new('UPCE', '123456789012');
my $sPtn = $oGdB->barcode();
# $sPtn = '';
