NAME
       pbmupc - create a Universal Product Code PBM image

SYNOPSIS
       pbmupc

       [-s1 | -s2] type manufacturer product

DESCRIPTION
       This program is part of Netpbm(1).

       pbmupc  generates  an image of a Universal Product Code symbol.  The three arguments are: a one digit product type, a five
       digit manufacturer code, and a five digit product code.  For example, "0 72890 00011" is the code for Heineken.

       pbmupc produces an image 230 bits wide and 175 bits high.  If you want a different size run the output through pamscale.

OPTIONS
       In addition to the options common to all programs based on libnetpbm (most notably -quiet, see  Common Options  ),  pbmupc
       recognizes the following command line options:

       The -s1 and -s2 options select the style of UPC to generate.  The default, -s1, looks more or less like this:

        ||||||||||||||||
        ||||||||||||||||
        ||||||||||||||||
        ||||||||||||||||
       0||12345||67890||5

       The other style, -s2, puts the product type digit higher up, and doesn't display the checksum digit:

        ||||||||||||||||
        ||||||||||||||||
       0||||||||||||||||
        ||||||||||||||||
        ||12345||67890||
