We are trying to print some fairly complicated carton labels from
an IBM RS/6000, and it looks as if we may have to do it through
PostScript. The labels will require human-readable sections in
different sizes and orientations and machine-readable barcodes in
different sizes, symbologies, and orientations.

I'm looking for anyone with experience printing barcodes in PostScript
who could tell be what symbologies are available and what issues there
are in doing this. Also, I'd like to hear what development tools people
are using.

I'd really appreciate any help. 

Thanks in advance,
