[cups.general] Document Tracking Filter?

[Carl Perry]

I'm sure this isn't a new idea, nor am I the first to think of it so I 
figured I would ask here before I went a wrote my own.

I'd like CUPS to perform an on-paper document tracking system, much like 
most banks and insurance companies uses these days, where each job has 
some information and most importantly a barcode in the margin.  I know 
CUPS has the classification feature, which does most of what I want 
(specifically add a pre and post job cover page) but won't let me 
customize the text in the margin or insert a barcode.

I figure the best way to implement this would be a pstops filter of some 
kind, and I thought someone may have seen/written something like this 
before.  If not, I'd gladly do it but need some information on how to do 
what I need in Postscript.  Any advice would be appreciated.  Thanks!
