First of all, I just got a private email from a friend. He tells me that chrsaw() is still alive, so to say.

Secondly, what we used to send to our customer, was ONE sheet of paper with just a few lines of text, and three barcodes marked 1, 2 and 3. Not all our customers were rocket scientists, but they all understood what to do.
