Barcodes for UPC, Code 3 of 9, Interleaved 2 of 5, and Codabar have been verified to scan properly. Thanks goes to aard for verification

UPC - ubiquitous to products in stores everywhere
Postnet - go Postal; now includes envelope generator!
Code 3 of 9 - inventory tracking, etc.
Interleaved 2 of 5 - distribution industry, game tickets
Codabar - blood banks, libraries
Code 2 of 5 - warehouses, airline tickets
Code 128 - inventory, tracking, etc
Code 16k, a 2D symbology, based on code 128. (looks really cool)
Dutch Guilder - initial spec, subject to correction
