If not given, the symbology defaults to 20 (Code 128). To see what types are available, use the \f[CR]\-t\f[R] | \f[CR]\-\-types\f[R] option. Type names are case\-insensitive, and non\-alphanumerics are ignored. .TP \f[CR]\-\-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[CR]\-\-batch\f[R] Treat each line of an input file specified with \f[CR]\-i\f[R] | \f[CR]\-\-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[CR]\-o\f[R] | \f[CR]\-\-output\f[R] option. .TP \f[CR]\-\-bg=COLOUR\f[R] Specify a background (paper) colour where \f[I]COLOUR\f[R] is in hexadecimal \f[CR]RRGGBB\f[R] or \f[CR]RRGGBBAA\f[R] format or in decimal \f[CR]C,M,Y,K\f[R] percentages format. .TP \f[CR]\-\-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[CR]\-\-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[CR]\-\-border\f[R] option. \f[CR]\-\-bind\f[R] can also be used to add row separator bars to symbols stacked with multiple \f[CR]\-d\f[R] | \f[CR]\-\-data\f[R] inputs, in which case the width of the separator bars is specified with the \f[CR]\-\-separator\f[R] option. .TP \f[CR]\-\-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[CR]\-\-border\f[R] option. .TP \f[CR]\-\-bold\f[R] Use bold text for the Human Readable Text (HRT). .TP \f[CR]\-\-border=INTEGER\f[R] Set the width of boundary bars (\f[CR]\-\-bind\f[R] or \f[CR]\-\-bindtop\f[R]) or box borders (\f[CR]\-\-box\f[R]), where \f[I]INTEGER\f[R] is in integral multiples of the X\-dimension. The default is zero. .TP \f[CR]\-\-box\f[R] Add a box around the symbol. The width of the borders is specified by the \f[CR]\-\-border\f[R] option. .TP \f[CR]\-\-cmyk\f[R] Use the CMYK colour space when outputting to Encapsulated PostScript (EPS) or TIF files. .TP \f[CR]\-\-cols=INTEGER\f[R] Set the number of data columns in the symbol to \f[I]INTEGER\f[R].

The \f[CR]\-\-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[CR]\-\-binary\f[R] option is given, in which case it can be anything. .TP \f[CR]\-\-direct\f[R] Send output to stdout, which in most cases should be re\-directed to a pipe or a file. Use \f[CR]\-\-filetype\f[R] to specify output format. .TP \f[CR]\-\-dmiso144\f[R] For Data Matrix symbols, use the standard ISO/IEC codeword placement for 144 x 144 (\f[CR]\-\-vers=24\f[R]) sized symbols, instead of the default \[lq]de facto\[rq] placement (which rotates the placement of ECC codewords). .TP \f[CR]\-\-dmre\f[R] For Data Matrix symbols, allow Data Matrix Rectangular Extended (DMRE) sizes when considering automatic sizes. See also \f[CR]\-\-square\f[R]. .TP \f[CR]\-\-dotsize=NUMBER\f[R] Set the radius of the dots in dotty mode (\f[CR]\-\-dotty\f[R]). \f[I]NUMBER\f[R] is in X\-dimensions, and may be floating\-point.
