Hi Terry,

Thank you for the amazing script that helps literally millions...

I'm a Scribus user, and I'd like to place my first barcode on a book's cover...
and I realized that we can have two versions:

a 2 block barcode, with the 5 digit "item price" addition...
that one is perfect... it is exactly what Amazon Kindle uses, for example, and what we find on most books since 2007...

But I'd prefer the barcode without the second block (the five digit price info),
which your generator produces perfectly, too... (the GS1 databar versions)
Only there is no "human readable" ISBN line above them...
It is not necessary, I know.... but most books have this format of barcode... and it looks best too :)

If only you could add an option to "point of sale / ISBN" to be one block only... :)
Or add an option "isbnontop" or something which we could add to GS1 databar barcodes :)
It'd be so great !! :)

Thank you for developing the free world's barcode generator!!

Peter
