[Sorry, I hit Tab then Return thinking I was in an editor.]

I like aspects of using both fonts and graphic generators:-

Fonts:
  - the size can easily be set precisely as a character attribute in the
    document. Sizing graphics I think is a little harder and less precise.
  - the size is more easily transported, e.g. 12 point is 12 point everywhere.
  - I can include the code as human readable text in any font anywhere in the
    document using the same encoding functions/macros as generate the barcode.
    Converting a document to text format will automatically include a human
    readable version of the barcode.
  - not limited to those encodings built-in to the graphic barcode generator.

Graphics (scalable):
  - I don't need to buy or find barcode fonts.
  - users sometimes find barcodes as fonts hard to grasp.
  - will transport easier to other document formats (e.g. web) without the need
    to include fonts, but size may not be guarranteed.
