Barcode generator service

This service provides easy access to generate and fetch barcodes in image format via HTTP. There is currently no access or volume restrictions enforced, and usage is free (note that if this service becomes heavily "abused", a white-listing mechanism will be put in place, so limit your use to what is needed...).

Request path and format:
