Overview

The QR Code symbology is 2D matrix-style barcode. It can encode full 256 character extended-ASCII.

Variants

HIBC QR Code is a variant that should be used when encoding HIBC formatted data.

Invoking

• The data field can contain any extended ASCII data.
• When the parse option is specified, any instances of ^NNN in the data field are replaced with their equivalent ASCII value, useful for specifying unprintable characters.
• The eclevel option is used to specify the error correction level:
• eclevel=L - Low
• eclevel=M - Medium (default)
• eclevel=Q - Quality
• eclevel=H - High
• The version option is used to specify the size of the symbol, 1 to 40 for full format symbols or version=M1, version=M2, version=M3 or version=M4 of micro format symbols.
• If unspecified, the encoder will select the version of the symbol that is the minimum size to represent the given data.
• The format option is used to select between format=full and format=micro symbol types. By default, full format symbols will be generated.
• The raw option denotes that the data field is providing the input as a pre-encoded bitstream suitable for direct low-level encoding.
• Note: Micro format symbols require that the data be supplied using the raw option.
