Detailed Description

The Barcode generation API is an RDR-discoverable interface that the core RIP calls to generate barcode data suitable for rendering.

The barcode API is used to generate barcode image data which can be displayed on a page via the PostScript barcode operator. This operator will call the methods sw_barcode_api_20170420::barcode_open(), sw_barcode_api_20170420::barcode_render() and then sw_barcode_api_20170420::barcode_close() for each barcode it has to render.

Note: This API is not complete or final. Only use documented and supported parameters of the PostScript barcode operator.
