It might take some work, but when I was working on form I decided to make a script for barcodes myself: http://wiki.scribus.net/canvas/Generating_a_Code39_Barcode The reason I did this was that I wasn't happy with the fuzzy PostScript creation of the barcode generator, and I wanted a different appearance to the numbers to be included under the code. The method in my script could serve as a function in another script, once you know the requirements of the kind of barcode you wish to make. Barcodes are a sequence of wide and narrow lines, with wide and narrow spaces, and there is ample documentation out there about the standards. Greg
