I just want to say, I have not used Print Wizard, but I have only heard 
great things about it.

Emailing from Linux/Unix is easy using sendmail or mutt.
Emailing from windows I use a little program called "blatt".

Barcodes I have different programs depending on the situation.

I place images on a report using mkpcl on any jpg and filepro's ability 
to print that image at any x-y position.

Print Wizard does these thing within one program.

Over the years I have used different ways to get these tasks done.
