Just wanted to say thanks for sharing your work. As for paperkey, I have an RSA 4096 bit key. Without paperkey, the output for my key was around 23-24 pages. With paperkey (using base64 output), the output was around 19 pages, so the benefit was minimal. Also, the first time I tried, the decode process kept failing on one barcode from the output pdf, but I re-encoded it and tried again and the decode process verified correctly. The ability of zbar to process the images directly from the pdf was impressive IMO. -- Sent from my Android device with K-9 Mail. Please excuse my brevity.
