Description
Is it possible to generate a barcode with the text that is recessed (similar to UPC) but using type "auto"?
I'm trying to generate a barcode that looks like this:
I tried setting the textMargin to a negative value, but the bars cover the text instead of the text covering the bars.
Thanks!

Research direction
Start by tracing how type "auto" and textMargin are handled when barcode text and bars are rendered. Compare the output with the linked recessed-text example; done means the generated barcode places the text over the bars in the requested UPC-like style without the bars covering it.
