Acuity CiMatrix in partnership with the US DoD and NASA. The symbol

<P>Also known as Quick Response Code this symbology was developed by

Denso. QR Code support in Zint relies on <I>libqrencode</I> (version

2.0.0 or later) which is available from
|
||
<A HREF="http://megaui.net/fukuchi/works/qrencode/index.en.html">http://megaui.net/fukuchi/works/qrencode/index.en.html</A>.
|
||
Support for QR Code through <I>libzint</I> means that developers only
|
||
need to write handlers for one API which covers QR Code as well as
|
||
all of the other code symbologies provided by <I>libzint</I>. Four

levels of error correction are available using the <FONT FACE="Courier, monospace">security=</FONT>

|
||
<P ALIGN=LEFT>Developed by UPS the Maxicode symbology employs a grid
|
||
of hexagons surrounding a 'bulls-eye' finder pattern. This symbology
|
||
is designed for the identification of parcels. Zint encodes Maxicode
|
||
symbols in Mode 2 or Mode 3 depending on the postcode data entered.
|
||
In these modes Maxicode symbols are composed of two parts named the
|
||
primary and secondary messages. The primary message consists of a
|
||
structured data field which includes various data about the package
|
||
being sent, the secondary message usually consists of address data in
|
||
a data structure. The format of the primary message is given in the
|
||
following table:
