It is a simple but useful utility that lets you interpret and create QR codes. The use of these codes is becoming increasingly popular in such areas as shopping, personal identification, product labeling and phone contact sharing. The program is so easy to use that I am sure you will not need any help to start using it.
The utility supports two main modes: Reader and Generator. When used for reading codes, the tool allows importing information by various methods. First, it lets you acquire the code directly from your computer screen by selecting the region in which it appears. Second, you can use your webcam as a scanner to capture the QR, which is quite useful when you are getting the info straight from a product.
Third, it is possible to import it in various picture formats, such as JPG, GIF, TIFF and PNG. Finally, the code may be taken from the clipboard as well. Surprisingly, the program does not seem to support using scanners of any type. No matter the method used, you can easily get the translation of the code into simple text in the lower part of the program’s window.
When the Generate Mode is on, you should start by typing the desired text or importing it from the clipboard. You do not even need to press any button, as the QR code is automatically generated and updated as you type. The resulting code can then be copied to the clipboard or saved as a picture file. In addition, you can customize the size of the code or use the default values instead. more
