You might want to look at the U.S. State Department's page for the
form to renew a passort by mail. They have you fill out an online 
form, and them when you ok it, a PDF file is created fully filled in
complete with a barcode containing everything in the form in a way that
the computer can read it.

It may be too sophisticated for your needs/budget, but the concepts
will still apply.
