Description
Which format should I use (CODE128; EAN / UPC; CODE39; ITF-14; MSI; Pharmacode; Codabar;) to generate a [brazilian "Boleto bancário" or bank slip](https://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boleto_banc%C3%A1rio)?
Or is it possible to do this using this lib? This [thread](https://github.com/lindell/JsBarcode/issues/73) says I should use 'itf' but it doesn't seem to be working.
I tested using this number "03399.33335 33886.349134 88111.901026 6 79580000014289", but the generated barcode isn't recognized by any bank app barcode scanner.

Research direction
Begin with the barcode formats and the sample boleto number named in the issue, then compare the library's ITF output with the requirements of Brazilian boleto scanners. Confirm whether JsBarcode supports this representation or identify the precise limitation; done means the sample is recognized by a bank scanner or the unsupported case is clearly documented.
