[Bug 23510] New: Allow QR codes to be used in label creator
https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=23510 Bug ID: 23510 Summary: Allow QR codes to be used in label creator Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: unspecified Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: Label/patron card printing Assignee: cnighswonger@foundations.edu Reporter: theod@lib.auth.gr QA Contact: testopia@bugs.koha-community.org Currently, only CODE39, CODE39MOD, CODE39MOD10, COOP2OF5, INDUSTRIAL2OF5 and EAN13 barcode types are allowed in Label creator. It would be nice to have 2D barcode support as well, as more information is crammed in less space and the result square-sized barcode can easily be put UNDER (or OVER) a biblio spine label! As an added bonus, the PDF::Reuse::Barcode module (https://metacpan.org/pod/PDF::Reuse::Barcode) used in Label creation, already supports generation of QRcodes, so the whole enhancement should be 'fairly' easy to implement! -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

This was a quick'n'dirty approach to prove that this enhancement is possible and not too difficult to implement. Additional checks and/or documentation may be needed. Notes: I have chosen to use - QRCode version 1 and modulesize=1 (small square) because I personally needed to add the result code in a small area - also decided to hide the text version of the barcode (to save space) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
