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?
