               POSTNET BARCODE PRINTING FOR CLIPPER V5.2
                              VERSION 2.2

This shareware version allows you to print zip+4 barcodes from within a clipper
5.x program.

This is an unregisterd version, but produces complete barcodes including
delivery point and CRC bars.  This program will only produce bars for laserjet
and PCL compatible printers.

What's new in version 2:

  o Bar's produced 2-3x faster than version 1.
  o Bars can now be printed under both Portrit and Landscape Orientation
  o Bars can be printed using @ say or ? - no need to specify a special x,y
  o Delivpnt() function for calculating the postal delivery point included
  o CRC calculation corrected - now properly handles all zip codes.
  o Source code is now available

VERSION 2 IS ALSO AVAILABLE FOR SUMMER '87 users.

Why use this program over a printer font or other POSTNET program?
  o This function will not take up printer memory or tie up a cartridge slot.
  o This function calculates CRC (check digit) codes automatically.
  o This function generates start and stop bars automatically.
  o All bar spacing and size are independent of font and settings, this allows
    for consistent bar generation.
  o This function can be linked with your existing source allowing royalty free
    postnet creation.
  o Landscape allows bars to be printed directly on envelopes and special forms
  o This routine uses Clipper's (row,col) coordinates and does not
    require additional x,y positioning.
