Offer - Variable bar length and better label positioning for EAN barcodes #7

Closed savissimo closed 3 years ago

While they are working for scan readers, the barcodes generated for EAN codes don't comply with the industry standard representation (with longer bars where the markers are, and "broken" label - see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Article_Number#/media/File:EAN13.svg for an example).

I appreciate the elegance of your solution for rendering the barcode, and as I said there is no practical or functional necessity to improve the rendering, but it would be cool to obtain an image that is 100% similar to what you would find on a commercial product package.

I offer to implement a better rendering for EAN-8 and EAN-13 through polymorphism. Is this something you would be interested in adding, or would you rather keep it simpler in your library?

If you develop this functionality I can analyze, I accept any contribution. It is only you send pull request that we enter into an agreement for the code. 😉

Great! I was wondering if you had something against having the feature. I'll be working on it, and I'll send you a pull request when I'm done. Thank you.
