RE: HP-41 Barcode Scanner and Generator
Hi Michael,

Version 1.13 appears to have fixed any previous issues. I have generated barcodes with it into the PDF format, then I printed the PDF file and then used my wand to read in the barcode lines. With version 1.13, that process now worked perfectly. But to recap my experience:

The specific issue I had with version 1.11 was not "scanning" the PDF files. I think I was not clear in explaining that. The issue was that I can generate the barcode file into the PDF format.

Then I print that PDF file.
Then I use my wand to read the barcodes back into the calculator to confirm if the barcodes are properly generated.

That is where version 1.11 caused me an issue. The wand could read each of the barcode lines and I would receive a successful "beep" from the calculator. So, the "formatting" of the barcodes was good. BUT... the "content" of the barcode on at least one line was bad.

This was repeatable and always generated bizarre and unusual lines of code into the calculator.
That is why i reverted to 1.10.

Anyway, 1.13 is working perfectly now!!! Thank you again for this great tool. I use it many times each day :-)

Regards, Paul
