Barcode Data
QR Codes can have many different types of data, which determines how the code will be
generated. On top of just straightforward data, special data structures are used to trigger actions
on the device that reads them. This can include contact cards, phone numbers, URLs, emails,
etc.
To learn more about the specifications of the different QR code types, see the ZXing Project
barcode contents page.
OneCode, KIX Code, Royal Mail, Australia Post
OneCode, KIX Code, Royal Mail and Australia Post are some of the types of barcodes that can
be added to a template; see "Barcode" on page528.
The barcode can be added either using the Barcode toolbar button or through selecting Insert
> Barcode on the menu; see "Adding a Barcode" on page528.
Initially the barcode will have the barcode type's default properties. To change those properties,
such as the scale and color, open the Barcode properties dialog: right-click the barcode (on the
Design tab in the Workspace) and select the barcode type on the shortcut menu.
