Barcode generator for Python?

Does anyone know of a barcode generator for Python? I'm looking to do
this on Windows. It would be nice to find something free, but that's not
necessary (so long as it's reasonable). It doesn't have to be
Python-specific, either, so long as I can call it from Python. I'd love
to hear any suggestions.

I've seen bookland.py, but the kind of barcodes I'm looking to generate
are not ISBN barcodes.

Thanks!

Hi Jen,

I wrote a wrapper around the GNU Barcode library, but nobody really used it.
You can get it from here:

http://www.procoders.net/download.ph...=PyBarcode.zip

It should be for python 2.2. Look at the example to see if it suits your
needs. If yes, I could build a new version for python 2.3.

regards,
Achim

I have a script that creates UPC barcodes, but that's not what you're
looking for, is it? If it is, let me know and I'll try and find the script.

Also Reportlab (http://www.reportlab.com) has a great barcode extension
(no, I did not write it, just use it :)

I have found various free truetype fonts in the past with various
encodings. Would a font be helpful?

Hi everyone, I am searching for a python library for barcode recognition. We have developed a rather complex application for document tracking and document management in python/Zope, called PAFlow (www.paflow.it: sorry, most of the information is in Italian...). As our project is completely free software, we will need a library that is free software too.

Hi. Im looking for an I25 barcode generator. I found a couple of nice EAN barcode generators, but this application needs an I25 barcode. Since this will be an web application, i need to do it in the server side. In python, off course :) Anybody knows one? Thanks! Gerardo

Does anyone know of any decent (open source or commercial) python barcode recognition tools or libraries. I need to read barcodes from pdfs or images, so it will involve some OCR algorithm. I also only need to read the code 93 symbology, so it doesn't have to be very fancy. The most important thing to me is that it outputs in some python friendly way, or ideally that it is written in python. Any tips would be great!
