[reportlab-users] Barcode flowable horizontal offset, why?

[Jeff Kowalczyk]

Can anyone tell me why this barcode (a flowable) is offset to the right of
its start coordinate? The grid is just for reference. Thanks.

from reportlab.pdfgen import canvas
from reportlab.extensions.barcode.common import *
from reportlab.extensions.barcode.code128 import *

def demo(canvas, x, y, text):
    c = canvas
    bc = Code128(text)
    bc.drawOn(c, x, y)
    t = c.beginText(x,y-10)
    t.setFont('Helvetica',6)
    t.textOut(text)
    c.drawText(t)
    draw_grid(c, x, y)

def draw_grid(canvas, x, y):
    c = canvas
    xlist = range(x-60, x+120, 20)
    ylist = range(y-60, y+120, 20)
    c.setLineWidth(0.05)
    c.setStrokeGray(0.25)
    c.grid(xlist,ylist)
    for x in xlist:
        t = c.beginText(x,ylist[8])
        t.setFont('Helvetica',6)
        t.textOut(str(x))
        c.drawText(t)
    for y in ylist:
        t = c.beginText(xlist[8],y)
        t.setFont('Helvetica',6)
        t.textOut(str(y))
        c.drawText(t)
    c.setStrokeGray(1.0)

if __name__=='__main__':
    c = canvas.Canvas('Barcoding.pdf')
    x, y = 120, 500
    c.circle(x, y, 1)
    demo(c, x, y,'Barcoding')
    c.save()
