QR Code (HMG_Zebra)

Post by s57ua »

Hi,

can someone suggest how to implement ECI - Extended Channnel Interpretation codes (8859-2) in hbzebra (qrcode)?

Best regards, TIA

From what I was able to find out, you need to add ECI indicator at the beginning of the string, for 8859-2 it is "\000004". So an example string should look something like "\000004Zażółć gęślą jaźń". It should be noted that not all qr code readers correctly interpret ECI indicators.

Note that the official HMG function for generating QR codes has a bug. Here is the fix: http://hmgforum.com/viewtopic.php?p=534 ... cbb#p53474

Thank you very much EDK for the link.
I am now able create QR files using HMG.

QUESTION:
Does anyone know if there is also HMG program code to read a QR file and return its text contents?
