        !             5: .B laserbar
        !             6: [\fB-r\fP rotate] [\fB-x\fP xoffset] [\fB-y\fP yoffset]

        !             8: .SH DESCRIPTION
        !             9: .I Laserbar
        !            10: prints on the standard output the PostScript text that will produce
        !            11: (on a suitable laser printer) the \s-2CODE-39\s+2 bar code
        !            12: corresponding to
        !            13: .I string.
        !            14: The \fBr\fP option may be used to specify a rotation (in
        !            15: degrees) of the bar code.
        !            16: The \fBx\fP, \fBy\fP, \fBX\fP, and \fBY\fP options may be used to specify
        !            17: an x- or y-axis offset (in inches) or scaling factor, respectively.
        !            18: (The offset is measured from the lower left corner of the page
        !            19: to the upper left corner of the bar
        !            20: code.  By default, the bar code produced is one inch high, and is scaled
        !            21: so that the narrowest elements are each 1/72-inch \- i.e., one point \- wide.)
        !            22: If the \fBl\fP option is specified, the bar code produced is labeled.
        !            23: If the \fBn\fP option is specified, the resulting PostScript text
        !            24: includes a leading \f(CWnewpath\fP command, so that the text may stand
        !            25: alone or precede any other PostScript commands.
        !            26: If the \fBs\fP option is specified, the resulting PostScript text includes 
        !            27: a trailing \f(CWshowpage\fP command, so that the text may stand alone
        !            28: or follow any other PostScript commands.
        !            29: .P
        !            30: This manual page (if it appears with a bar code printed on it) was
