Thank's I am looking for a freeware or shareware software which should be able to interprete some barre-codes images or profiles. We aim to read barre-code whithout any dedicated device but to use a image file from a CCD-camera or a scanner. Just a part of the picture should consist in a barre-code the rest is a DNA blot result. The problem is that after extraction of the barre-code zone we ignore how to interpret it ! So we wonder if any existing software should help us in that task. Thanks. Phil@genethon.fr
