Bar width, space width, and character-to-character space
Designate the bar, space and character-to-character space widths according to the type
of barcode. Note that the proper value differs according to the rotational angle of
barcode, type, number of digits, print speed, paper used, etc. Examples of such
designations are listed below.
In the case of JAN, EAN, UPC, CODE93, CODE128, UCC/EAN128 or EAN128, the width
of 2 to 6 modules is automatically calculated by designating a 1-module width.
