NAME
kbarcode - KBarcode is a barcode and label printing application
SYNOPSIS
kbarcode [Qt-options] [KDE-options] [file]
DESCRIPTION
KBarcode is a barcode and label printing application for KDE. It can be
used to print everything from simple business cards up to complex
labels with several barcodes, such as article descriptions.
KBarcode comes with an easy-to-use WYSIWYG label designer, a setup
wizard, batch import of labels (directly from the delivery note),
thousands of predefined labels, database management tools, and
translations in many languages.
Even printing more than 10,000 labels in one go is no problem for
KBarcode.
Additionally, it is a simple xbarcode replacement for the creation of
barcodes. All major types of barcodes like EAN, UPC, CODE39, and ISBN
are supported.
