Carton_Tk
This GUI version is for single conversions. It takes input from the user and processes it into a PDF document -- two labels on each page.
It will convert everything to UPPERCASE, so don't worry about capitalization. BATCH should be in the format 795R
(US only) or 795/895R
(US/CAN), because that's what the distributor we work with requires.
The labels are two per page, 4" x 6", as close to BISG compliant as I could get. The Barcodes are in 128C format (except for the PRICE barcode) and include a 'FNC1' code. Not using the 'FNC1' is what causes most of the problems along the supply chain. You can add -debug
as a command line argument to get more verbose output.
You need to edit the code and change my $publisher=
to your company name (look for the TODO
blocks at line 28). You also need to update the array @pub_list
with your company/imprint names to be able to choose the right one for the label.
There are several ways to format an ISBN, either 978-0-00000-000-0 or 978-0-000000-00-0. There's an option now to choose which format shows on the label. It's not really important, just for consistency.
The 'Also create a PNG image of PDF' option only works if convert
is installed on your system
