+abstract: >-
+  Barcode Writer in Pure Postscript (BWIPP) generates all barcode formats
+  entirely within PostScript so that the process of converting the input data
+  into the printed output can be performed by the printer or RIP itself. This
+  is ideal for variable data printing (VDP) and avoids the need to re-implement
+  the barcode generation process whenever your language needs change.
