== Create the PostProcessing script ==

 $ sudo vi /usr/local/bin/cups-pdf-barcode-tag

 #!/bin/bash

 FILENAME=$(basename $1)  DIRNAME=$(dirname $1)  firstpagefilepdf=/tmp/first.pdf  firstpagefilepdfstamped=/tmp/firststamped.pdf  restpagefilepdf=/tmp/first.pdf  barcodefileps=/tmp/barcode.ps  barcodefilepdf=/tmp/barcode.pdf  barcodefilepdfrot=/tmp/barcoderot.pdf

 numberofpages=$(pdfinfo "$1" | grep Pages | awk '{print $2}')  barcodetext="DMSD"$(date +'%Y%m%d%H%M%S')  newfilename=$DIRNAME"/"${barcodetext}" "${FILENAME}

 #delete old tmp files  rm ${firstpagefilepdf} ${restpagefilepdf} ${barcodefileps} ${barcodefilepdf} ${barcodefilepdfrot} ${firstpagefilepdfstamped} 2>/dev/null

   #generate barcode ps  barcode -b "${barcodetext}" -o ${barcodefileps} -e 128 -g 180x20+300+795 -n

 #convert ps to pdf  ps2pdf ${barcodefileps} ${barcodefilepdf}

 #rotate barcode pdf -90 degrese  pdftk ${barcodefilepdf} cat 1-endwest output ${barcodefilepdfrot}

 #extract first page  pdftk $1 cat 1 output ${firstpagefilepdf}

 #stamp first page with barcode  pdftk ${firstpagefilepdf} stamp ${barcodefilepdfrot} output ${firstpagefilepdfstamped}

 #only if pdf contains more than 1 pages  if [[ $numberofpages -gt 1 ]]  then         #extract rest pages (2-x)         pdftk $1 cat 2-end output ${restpagefilepdf}         #merge first and rest pages to new output file         pdftk ${firstpagefilepdfstamped} ${restpagefilepdf} cat output "${newfilename}" 

 else         pdftk ${firstpagefilepdfstamped} cat output "${newfilename}"  fi

 #delete old tmp files  rm ${firstpagefilepdf} ${restpagefilepdf} ${barcodefileps} ${barcodefilepdf} ${barcodefilepdfrot} ${firstpagefilepdfstamped} 2>/dev/null 

 #delete original file  rm $1 2>/dev/null
