# beautiful_barcode
Generate well-formatted, production-ready Barcodes.
By default, existing Python barcode libraries like [python-barcode](https://pypi.org/project/python-barcode/) generate good barcodes, but any and all formatting of the text is left up to the user. beautiful_barcode generates a nicely formatted barcode with interleaved text out of the box:
Depending on your renderer (and true by default), text in the barcode is *not* an SVG `` element, as such an elment may render differently on different machines depending on font availability.
This library is currently limited to UPC-A/EAN and EPS/SVG – that's all we (the original authors) needed. Patches welcome!
