How to Sell / Distribute Coupons or Gift Certificates

I'm having a hard time trying to figure out how to get coupon codes into the hands of potential customers. I have used both the batch coupons module and the fixed price coupons module and I can create discount codes, but how to I get the codes to the customer?

Ideally, I want to be able to generate downloadable pdfs as a product which contain a code that can be redeemed for a fixed amount off, but I'm lost beyon creating the coupon code. Any suggestions?

Category Coupon

I would like to setup a flexible system using the coupon module. I would like to add a term reference field to the coupon entity that refers to a product category/taxonomy.

Now my client can create a coupon and designate "10% off all Baby Shoes" where Baby Shoes is a taxonomy term set on each product display that contains baby shoe SKUs.

On coupon redemption, only products whose product displays are in the Baby Shoes category receive a discount.

Has anyone set something like this up before and would care to share the detail on how they did it?

Adding complexity to commerce coupon

I posted this under Q & A, and though I can edit the post, I can't delete it from there. I just think it's probably a better question for the community because I assume these scenarios have come up for others.

My client is a book publisher/online book retailer. I need to extend the commerce coupon functionality by adding two additional fields to the percentage discount coupon. Besides the percentage off field, I need to be able to offer free shipping with a coupon. I also need to be able to limit the discount to specific items.

Examples:
