用戶需要從系統中產生、打印或者傳真條形碼的原因如下：

• 文檔管理的要求
• 供應鏈的要求
• VDA 4902，B－10，GTL格式

用戶可以認為這是沒有問題的——因為有下面許多可能性可供選擇：

• 使用專用的條形碼打印機。當然這是一個很好的主意（如果用戶不需要傳真或者保存條形碼）。但是用戶真的肯定自己花錢僅僅就是為了買一臺單獨的打印機嗎？用戶愿意被強制的使用打印機的標準模型嗎？或者當用戶想更換打印機時，他愿意再一次的付錢嗎？
• 使用裝有條形碼字體的打印機磁帶。當然，這是另一個選擇。但是，這個選擇是非常昂貴的，而且它不能通信（如Emailing）。
• Linux/Unix環境下的TBarCode控件是一種為用戶的Spool-/Print-/Webserver提供的軟條形碼解決方案，它可被用在幾乎所有的應用中：如SAP/R3，Oracle，legacy應用。
• TBarCode控件為用戶省錢。用戶可不需要購買條形碼打印機而使用條形碼技術。
• TBarCode控件為用戶省時間。此控件可方便的進行配置，而不需要費時、麻煩的去編程。
• TBarCode支持非常多的條形碼，而且不需要額外的花費。它總是最新的。如果用戶需要新的符號，只需要更新軟件，而不需要再花錢購買硬件。
• 最好的是TBarCode控件可以自定義，因此它可和現存的應用一起工作。不需要對用戶的應用進行重新編程。
• TBarCode是一個完全與設備無關的控件。用戶可以在所有支持PostScript或者PCL的打印機上打印條形碼。
• TBarCode控件具有多種功能。能夠滿足特殊的通信需求（如傳真、E-mail，存儲等等）。
• TBarCode控件支持所有常用的條形碼符號體系。支持線性的（1D）和大容量的二維（2D）碼（如PDF417、DataMatrix、QR-Code、MaxiCode等等）。
• 部分包中含有應用過濾器，它用于插入用戶的打印序列。它的安裝非常簡單，可使用戶的PostScript或者PCL打印機成為一個具有完整功能的條形碼打印機。

You need to generate, to print or to fax bar codes from within your system because of several reasons:

• Document Management Requirements
• Supply Chain Requirements
• VDA 4902, B-10, GTL forms

No problem you think - there are a lot of possibilities to choose from:

• Using special bar code printers. Well - that's a perfect idea (if you do not need to fax or save the bar codes). But are you really sure you want to pay for each single printer? And do you prefer to be forced to use exactly that printer models? Or to pay once again if you change printers?
• Using printer cartridges with bar code fonts. Of course, this is another solution. But again - it's very expensive and doesn't allow post processing (like Emailing).
• TBarCode for Linux/Unix - the software bar code solution for your Spool-/ Print-/ or Webserver - can be used with almost every application: SAP/R3, Oracle, legacy applications,
• TBarCode saves your money. Use bar code technique without costly bar code printers.
• TBarCode saves your time. Configuration is easy - no need for time-consuming and annoying escape-sequence programming.
• TBarCode offers extensive bar code support - without additional costs. And it is always up-to-date. New symbologies are required? Just update the software - instead of purchasing new hardware.
• Most likely TBarCode can be customized so it works with existing applications. No re-programming of your application is required.
• TBarCode is completely device independent. You can print the bar codes on all printers supporting PostScript or PCL
• TBarCode is versatile. Special post-processing requirements (like faxing, emailing, storing, ...) can be fulfilled.
• TBarCode supports all bar code symbologies in common use. Linear (1D) as well as high-capacity two-dimensional (2D) codes (like PDF417, DataMatrix, QR-Code, MaxiCode, ...) are supported.
• Part of the package: ready to use filter-application which plugs into your printer-queue. It is installed easily and turns your PostScript or PCL printer into a full-featured bar code printer.
