.PD 0
.P
.PD
\f[V]zint\f[R] [\f[I]options\f[R]]
.SH DESCRIPTION
.PP
zint takes input data from the command line or a file to encode in a
barcode which is then output to an image file.
.PP
Input data is UTF-8, unless \f[V]--binary\f[R] is specified.
.PP
Human Readable Text (HRT) is displayed by default for those barcodes
that support HRT, unless \f[V]--notext\f[R] is specified.
.PP
The output image file (specified with \f[V]-o\f[R] | \f[V]--output\f[R])
may be in one of these formats: Windows Bitmap (\f[V]BMP\f[R]), Enhanced
Metafile Format (\f[V]EMF\f[R]), Encapsulated PostScript
(\f[V]EPS\f[R]), Graphics Interchange Format (\f[V]GIF\f[R]), ZSoft
Paintbrush (\f[V]PCX\f[R]), Portable Network Format (\f[V]PNG\f[R]),
Scalable Vector Graphic (\f[V]SVG\f[R]), or Tagged Image File Format
(\f[V]TIF\f[R]).
.SH OPTIONS
.TP
\f[V]-h\f[R], \f[V]--help\f[R]
Print usage information summarizing command line options.
.TP
\f[V]-b TYPE\f[R], \f[V]--barcode=TYPE\f[R]
Set the barcode symbology that will be used to encode the data.
\f[I]TYPE\f[R] is the number or name of the barcode symbology.
If not given, the symbology defaults to 20 (Code 128).
To see what types are available, use the \f[V]-t\f[R] |
\f[V]--types\f[R] option.
Type names are case-insensitive, and non-alphanumerics are ignored.
.TP
\f[V]--addongap=INTEGER\f[R]
For EAN/UPC symbologies, set the gap between the main data and the
add-on.
\f[I]INTEGER\f[R] is in integral multiples of the X-dimension.
The maximum gap that can be set is 12.
The minimum is 7, except for UPC-A, when the minimum is 9.
.TP
\f[V]--batch\f[R]
Treat each line of an input file specified with \f[V]-i\f[R] |
\f[V]--input\f[R] as a separate data set and produce a barcode image for
each one.
The barcode images are outputted by default to numbered filenames
starting with \[lq]00001.png\[rq], \[lq]00002.png\[rq] etc., which can
be changed by using the \f[V]-o\f[R] | \f[V]--output\f[R] option.
.TP
\f[V]--bg=COLOUR\f[R]
Specify a background (paper) colour where \f[I]COLOUR\f[R] is in
hexadecimal \f[V]RRGGBB\f[R] or \f[V]RRGGBBAA\f[R] format or in decimal
\f[V]C,M,Y,K\f[R] percentages format.
.TP
\f[V]--binary\f[R]
Treat input data as raw 8-bit binary data instead of the default UTF-8.
Automatic code page translation to an ECI page is disabled, and no
validation of the data\[cq]s character encoding takes place.
.TP
\f[V]--bind\f[R]
Add horizontal boundary bars (also known as bearer bars) to the symbol.
The width of the boundary bars is specified by the \f[V]--border\f[R]
option.
\f[V]--bind\f[R] can also be used to add row separator bars to symbols
stacked with multiple \f[V]-d\f[R] | \f[V]--data\f[R] inputs, in which
case the width of the separator bars is specified with the
\f[V]--separator\f[R] option.
.TP
\f[V]--bindtop\f[R]
Add a horizontal boundary bar to the top of the symbol.
The width of the boundary bar is specified by the \f[V]--border\f[R]
option.
.TP
\f[V]--bold\f[R]
Use bold text for the Human Readable Text (HRT).
.TP
\f[V]--border=INTEGER\f[R]
Set the width of boundary bars (\f[V]--bind\f[R] or \f[V]--bindtop\f[R])
or box borders (\f[V]--box\f[R]), where \f[I]INTEGER\f[R] is in integral
multiples of the X-dimension.
The default is zero.
.TP
\f[V]--box\f[R]
Add a box around the symbol.
The width of the borders is specified by the \f[V]--border\f[R] option.
.TP

.TP
\f[V]--compliantheight\f[R]
Warn if the height specified by the \f[V]--height\f[R] option is not
compliant with the barcode\[cq]s specification, or if \f[V]--height\f[R]
is not given, default to the height specified by the specification (if
any).
.TP
\f[V]-d\f[R], \f[V]--data=DATA\f[R]
Specify the input \f[I]DATA\f[R] to encode.
The \f[V]--esc\f[R] option may be used to enter non-printing characters
using escape sequences.
The \f[I]DATA\f[R] should be UTF-8, unless the \f[V]--binary\f[R] option
is given, in which case it can be anything.

stdout.
The same representation may be outputted to a file by using a
