new


            

              
              
$colissimo = Business::Colissimo->new(mode => 'access_f',
     customer_number => '900001',
     parcel_number => '2052475203',
     postal_code => '72240',
     weight => 250);
$colissimo = Business::Colissimo->new(mode => 'expert_f',
     customer_number => '900001',
     parcel_number => '2052475203',
     postal_code => '72240',
     weight => 250,
     cod => 1,
     level => '01');

barcode

Produces the tracking barcode:


            

              
              
$colissimo->barcode('tracking');

Same with proper spacing for the shipping label:


            

              
              
$colissimo->barcode('tracking', spacing => 1);

Produces the sorting barcode:


            

              
              
$colissimo->barcode('sorting');

Same with proper spacing for the shipping label:


            

              
              
$colissimo->barcode('sorting', spacing => 1);

barcode_image

Produces PNG image for tracking barcode:


            

              
              
$colissimo->barcode_image('tracking');

Produces PNG image for sorting barcode:


            

              
              
$colissimo->barcode_image('sorting');

Produces PNG image for arbitrary barcode:


            

              
              
$colissimo->barcode_image('8L20524752032');

The scale of the image can be changed for each barcode individually:


            

              
              
$colissimo->barcode_image('8L20524752032', scale => 2);

The default scale is set to 1, because that produces images with the right number of pixels to include them into PDF with PDF::API2, which uses 72dpi resolution for images unless you specify width and height explicitly (see PDF::API2::Content).

The formula for calculating width in mm for a 72dpi resolution is as follows:


            

              
              
(1px * 25.4) / 72dpi

This fits into Colissimo's requirement for the basic module (narrowest element of the bar code) of 0.33 to 0.375 mm.

Returns logo file name for selected service.
