28       $oGdBar = GD::Barcode::EAN8->new($sTxt);
29
30       Constructor.  Creates a GD::Barcode::EAN8 object for $sTxt.  $sTxt has
31       7 or 8 numeric characters([0-9]).  If $sTxt has 12 characters, this
32       module calacurates CD for you.

34       plot()
35
36       $oGd = $oGdBar->plot([Height => $iHeight, NoText => 0  1]);
37
38       creates GD object with barcode image for the $sTxt specified at new
39       method.  $iHeight is height of the image. If NoText is 1, the image has
40       no text image of $sTxt.

43         my $oGdB = GD::Barcode::EAN8->new('1234567');
44         my $oGD = $oGdB->plot(NoText=>1, Height => 20);
45         # $sGD is a GD image with Height=>20 pixels, with no text.
46
47       barcode()
48
49       $sPtn = $oGdBar->barcode();
50
51       returns a barcode pattern in string with '1', 'G' and '0'.  '1' means
52       black, 'G' also means black but little bit long, '0' means white.

55         my $oGdB = GD::Barcode::EAN8->new('1234567');
56         my $sPtn = $oGdB->barcode();
57         # $sPtn = '';
