Revision history for Perl extension PDF::Reuse::Barcode.

0.11 Wed Jul 29 2026
     Bug fixes to the 0.10 "textsize" work and one older defect:
     - The bars are now raised as the text grows, so a large textsize no
       longer prints the human readable text over the bottom of the
       barcode. Previously anything above about 12 point overprinted,
       which is a scanning failure rather than a cosmetic one. GitHub #8.
     - The background extension strips are drawn at the height the
       background box was actually drawn at, rather than one unit short.
       GitHub #8.
     - $qrcode is reset between barcodes, so a barcode drawn after a
       QRcode in the same process no longer renders down the QRcode path.
       GitHub #6.
     Output at the default textsize is unchanged.

0.10 Wed Jul 29 2026
     Added "textsize" parameter to set the point size of the human readable
     text below the barcode. Defaults to 10, so existing output is unchanged.
     Applies to Code128, Code39, the 2of5 family, ITF, NW7 and QRcode; the
     EAN and UPC functions place their text in fixed positions and still use
     10 point. GitHub #3.
