DESCRIPTION

       GD::Barcode::NW7 is a subclass of GD::Barcode and allows you to create NW7 barcode image

   new
       $oGdBar = GD::Barcode::NW7->new($sTxt);

       Constructor.  Creates a GD::Barcode::NW7 object for $sTxt.  $sTxt has variable length
       string with (0-9, - $ / . + ABCD).

   plot()
       $oGd = $oGdBar->plot([Height => $iHeight, NoText => 0 | 1]);

       creates GD object with barcode image for the $sTxt specified at new method.  $iHeight is
       height of the image. If NoText is 1, the image has no text image of $sTxt.

         my $oGdB = GD::Barcode::NW7->new('123456789012');
         my $oGD = $oGdB->plot(NoText=>1, Height => 20);
         # $sGD is a GD image with Height=>20 pixels, with no text.

   barcode()
       $sPtn = $oGdBar->barcode();

       returns a barcode pattern in string with '1' and '0'.  '1' means black, '0' means white.

        ex.
         my $oGdB = GD::Barcode::NW7->new('123456789012');
         my $sPtn = $oGdB->barcode();
         # $sPtn = '';
