+To whom it may concern,
+
+I have read and understand GitHub's Guide to Filing a DMCA Notice.
+
+This DMCA takedown is for the following projects hosted on your website:
+
+* https://github.com/dineshrabara/barcodeAll
+
+I have investigated the case and I have noticed that the project
+listed above is using source code copied from the project
+https://github.com/tecnickcom/TCPDF originally hosted at
+http://sourceforge.net/projects/tcpdf/ but all original notices about
+author, copyright and license were removed or replaced.
+
+The first commit on the copied PARENT project is indicated as 5 June
+2014, so it can be safely compared against TCPDF version 6.0.083
+released 29 May 2014
+(https://github.com/tecnickcom/TCPDF/tree/6.0.083):
+
+The following files appears to be almost verbatim copies of the
+original ones, with the exception of the legal notices removed
+(author, copyright and license):
+
+* src/Datamatrix.php (include/barcodes/datamatrix.php)
+* src/DNS1D.php (tcpdf_barcodes_1d.php)
+* src/DNS2D.php (tcpdf_barcodes_2d.php)
+* src/PDF417.php (include/barcodes/pdf417.php)
+* src/QRcode.php (include/barcodes/qrcode.php)
+
+The original code is released under the GNU LGPLv3 license and
+copyrighted by [Private] - Tecnick.com LTD, but none of this
+information is present in the copied files.
+https://github.com/tecnickcom/TCPDF/blob/6.0.083/LICENSE.TXT
+
+The options to remedy the infringment are:
+
+1. delete the project - this seems the best option as this project is
+not adding anything to the original files.
+2. if the license is compatible with GNU-LGPLv3, replace the
+infringing files with the original ones, or reinstate the original
+notices (author, copyright, license);
+3. delete the infringing files and use the new external library
+https://github.com/tecnickcom/tc-lib-barcode (originally based on the
+same code).
+
+I have a good faith belief that use of the copyrighted materials
+described above on the infringing web pages is not authorized by the
+copyright owner, or its agent, or the law.
+I swear, under penalty of perjury, that the information in this
+notification is accurate and that I am the copyright owner, or am
+authorized to act on behalf of the owner, of an exclusive right that
+is allegedly infringed.

+
+The only contact information I have about the infringers is the one
+derived from their GitHub page (please see the preceding links above).
+
+Please send me a prompt response indicating the actions you have taken
+to resolve this matter as soon as possible.
+
