Guide / 02

Quick guide

  1. Choose QR or Code 128 and enter the exact text or URL to encode.
  2. Generate the symbol, inspect the preview, and download the PNG.
  3. At the intended print or screen size, scan it with at least two readers and compare the decoded text with the input.

CHECK

Validate the result

Scan the generated image with a phone camera or barcode application and verify every character of the decoded value.

LIMITS

Know the limits

QR output uses medium error correction and a fixed default margin, while Code 128 has character and practical length constraints. Successful generation does not guarantee readability on every printer or scanner.

FAQ

Frequently asked

Can I crop the margin or use low-contrast QR colors?

Heavy cropping and low contrast reduce recognition. Preserve a quiet zone around the symbol and use a dark code on a light background for reliable scanning.
