Ryanair boarding pass barcode looks weird???

Sorry if this is a silly question but flying tomorrow and dont want to upset any Ryanair staff & pay charges! I have checked in online & printed our boarding passess but the barcode is not straight lines like the supermarket ones...hard to describe but it's like pixalated black & white squares? Is this normal!? Thanks for any help I'm starting to panic it won't scan-will miss plane or get charged etc
(Can you tell I'm a nervous flyer?)

    Yep, for some reason I have a boarding pass pdf saved, and it does look pixelated.
    Gone ... or have I?

    They're supposed to be like that- its a 2D barcode, totally different to your supermarket one.
