Re: [hylafax-users] Barcode

Paul,

I have developed code for reading BarCode 39 and Barcode 25 on documents 
scanned at 200 dpi and above. We use this code as part of our scanning 
product to automatically store documents under a name/number that has 
been barcoded on the document. The barcodes were placed on the documents 
either in the original printing on laser printers or dot matrix printers 
or added to the documents after printing using stickers. Restrictions as 
to the legal character set, leading or trailing characters and length of 
the barcode can be set to the software can discern the correct bar code 
on the page if there are multiple barcodes on the page. The code also 
handles checksum in the barcode 25 format.

The code reads the barcode anywhere on the document or can be constrained 
to look at a certain rectangle. The code does not handle upside down or 
90 degree rotations. The barcode cannot be skewed such that a horizontal 
line through the barcode does not pass through both ends. We have been 
using it for years at have tuned it for a high degree of accuracy on low 
quality documents. I could package this code in a form that could be used 
as a unix utility that could take parameters that specify the TIFF file, 
optional rectangle to restrict looking for bar code in, and an optional 
template to restrict the form of the barcode, and output the bar code 
found to standard out. The cost of the development would be $5800 and you 
would receive the source code the program. Let me know if this would be 
agreeable to you.
