Thank you. That helped to generate the PDF. The labels are a little bit strange: The text (Titel and author) are printed way too much to the left and affect the other labels. But maybe that's a problem with the printer configuration. I'm on the way to new experiments :-) Thank you Beda
HOw does one use this patch. I tried to apply by going to the /usr/local/share/perl directory and running patch -p1 <barcodefix.patch But it did nothing. MJ Ray-2 wrote:

Yes, can we have some information on when we can expect this to be addressed? Or is there a temporary workaround? MJ Ray-2 wrote:

temporary workaround is http://serene.ttllp.co.uk/~mjr/barcodefix.patch Apparently there are no plans for a 2.2.10 release.

I think I spoke too soon. MJ Ray's patch called barcodefix.patch shows the following: -use PDF::API2::PDF::Utils; +use PDF::API2::Basic::PDF::Utils; It seems that there is a PDF Utils module, by a different name. What concerns me is that the printing and barcode stuff seem not to have worked for quite a while. Either this functionality is not being used by the Koha community or librarians are awfully mum about system errors. cheers rickw -- _________________________________ Rick Welykochy || Praxis Services Traditionally, most of Australia's imports come from overseas. -- Keppel Enderbery
We gave up on the barcode module. Nothing we did could get it going. We purchased printed barcodes from Leigh Mardon in Australia. So, as you say that part is not being used.

Hello Rick and everyone We don't use the barcode printers in Koha because we are unable to print labels inhouse which are of as high, permanent quality as ones we can purchase. In the long run, it's cheaper to buy labels that will last than to hassle with an inhouse module. It's not that we're usually mum... ;-) Rosalie Blake Head of Libraries Horowhenua Library Trust Rick Welykochy wrote:

Hi Rick, I have never really bothered much with koha's barcode module. We are running Linux (Debian) and use a program called kbarcode. (www.kbarcode.net) It gets it's information from the koha database. It prints our barcodes and spinelabels. Quite versatile program really. And it works!

Hi Marty
I have never really bothered much with koha's barcode module. We are running Linux (Debian) and use a program called kbarcode. (www.kbarcode.net) It gets it's information from the koha database.
How? I would like to have a barcode-label with the name of the library-division, the author and the title on it. Would that work with kbarcode? Beda
