QR Code

This topic describes how to insert a barcode control of the QR Code symbology (code type) into a report. In addition, it gives a short description of the QR Code code type. To learn more about barcodes in XtraReports, see the Barcodes Overview topic.

A QR Code (QR is the abbreviation for Quick Response) is a two-dimensional code, readable by QR scanners, mobile phones with a camera, and smartphones. QR Code can encode textual, numeric and binary data.

The following properties should be set to specify a particular barcode of the QR type.

• XRBarCode.AutoModule. This property determines whether the XRBarCode.Module property value should be calculated automatically based upon the barcode's size.
• QRCodeGenerator.CompactionMode. This property allows you to choose whether numeric, alpha-numeric, or byte information should be coded.
• QRCodeGenerator.ErrorCorrectionLevel. This property determines the amount of redundancy built into the coding to compensate for calculation errors. The correction system is based on "Reed Solomon" codes.
• QRCodeGenerator.Version. This property specifies the barcode's size.
