NAME

       pbmupc - create a Universal Product Code PBM image

SYNOPSIS

       pbmupc

       [-s1 | -s2] type manufacturer product

DESCRIPTION

       This program is part of Netpbm(1).

       pbmupc  generates  an  image  of  a  Universal Product Code symbol.  The three arguments are: a one digit
       product type, a five digit manufacturer code, and a five digit  product  code.   For  example,  "0  72890
       00011" is the code for Heineken.

       pbmupc  produces  an  image 230 bits wide and 175 bits high.  If you want a different size run the output
       through pamscale.

OPTIONS

       In addition to the options common to all programs based on libnetpbm (most notably  -quiet,  see   Common
       Options ), pbmupc recognizes the following command line options:

       The  -s1  and -s2 options select the style of UPC to generate.  The default, -s1, looks more or less like
       this:

        ||||||||||||||||
        ||||||||||||||||
        ||||||||||||||||
        ||||||||||||||||
       0||12345||67890||5

       The other style, -s2, puts the product type digit higher up, and doesn't display the checksum digit:

        ||||||||||||||||
        ||||||||||||||||
       0||||||||||||||||
        ||||||||||||||||
        ||12345||67890||
