    Code 128 has variations 128A 128B and 128C
    Inserting the available "Code 128" doesn't seem to work for invoices, where 128C is needed.
    A small enhancements with variation selection is needed, thanks!

    Very useful extension, well done. It helped me finally escape from CorelDraw to LO Draw.

    Would it be possible to add Code 39 support, please? Thanks!

    MS excel can batch generate barcodes from csv, however, it has fatal problem: error to scanner, sometime! https://reurl.cc/aNGl5Z(in Japanese)
    I turn to Barcode_2.3.0.oxt to generate barcode one by one manually, however, the installer has an error: "missing lisence_ja.txt", open with Libreoffice4, Japanese version. I have to rename the Barcode_2.3.0.oxt to Barcode_2.3.0.zip and insert lisence_ja.txt file manually.

    Well done, that's very useful for me, however why is this not a part of the default installation? This is just as useful as making use of QR codes which is default.

    Regards

      Because noone has implemented it inside LibreOffice yet :)
      See https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=67090 for the feature request.
