ABSTRACT
QR code generation can be easily accomplished using Python programming language. Python
offers various libraries such as QRcode, qrcode, and python-qrcode that provide functionality to
generate QR codes. These libraries enable users to create QR codes with customized content,
size, and error correction levels. With just a few lines of code, you can generate QR codes for
various purposes, including data storage, tracking, and sharing. Additionally, Python's extensive
libraries and tools enable advanced customization and integration of QR code generation with
other applications and systems.
Some of the key features of QR code generation using Python include:
- Customizable content (text, URLs, emails, etc.)
- Adjustable size and error correction levels
- Support for various QR code versions and modes
- Generation of vector graphics (SVG, EPS, etc.) and raster images (PNG, JPEG, etc.)
- Integration with other Python libraries and frameworks for advanced applications.
Overall, Python provides a convenient and efficient way to generate QR codes, making it a
popular choice for various applications and use cases.

INTRODUCTION
--------------------------------
A QR (Quick Response) code is a two-dimensional barcode that

can store a significant amount of data, such as URLs, text,
contact information, and more. QR codes are widely used in
various applications, including marketing, authentication, and
information sharing, due to their ability to be easily scanned by
smartphones and other devices.
1.qr code Library :

• Create QR codes with different sizes and error correction levels.
• Supports adding data of various types, including URLs, text, and

contact information.
2. Pillow Library :
•Supports opening, manipulating, and saving many different image
file formats.
•Provides functions for drawing and images. •Integrates seamlessly

with the qrcode library for handling QR code images integrate with
other Python projects.

CSE Department, BIET (for CSE )
OVERVIEW AND TOOLS INVOLVED IN

QR CODE GENERATION
• QR Code stands for Quick Response Code, a type of two-

dimensional barcode that can be read using QR scanners or
smartphones with cameras. They are used to store data that
can be quickly and easily accessed by scanning the code. QR
codes can contain various types of information, including URLs,
text, contact information, and more.
• Tools Required :
• To create a QR code generator in Python, you will need the
following tools:
1. Python: The programming language to write the code.
2. qrcode Library: A Python library to generate QR codes.
3. Pillow Library: A Python Imaging Library (PIL) fork used for
image processing.
2
EXPLANATION OF STEPS
1.Import Libraries: Import qr code and Pillow to

handle QR code generation and image processing.
2.Define Data: Specify the information to be encoded

into the QR code.
3.Create QR Code Object: Initialize the “QR Code”

object with parameters for size, error correction, and
appearance.
4.Add Data: Add the data to the QR code object

using the “add_data” method.
5.Generate Image: Create the QR code image with

“make_image” method.
6.Save Image: Save the QR code image to a file for

later use.
These steps provide a clear and concise method to

generate QR codes using Python, which can be
adapted and expanded upon for various applications.

SUMMARY OF CUSTOMIZATION
OPTIONS
1.Changing Colors:
•Use “fill_color” and “back_color” parameters in

“make_image” to set foreground and background
colors.
2.Adding Logos:
•Open the logo image with Pillow. •Use the paste

method to add the logo to the QR code image.
3.Adjusting Size and Error Correction Levels:
•Set “version” to control QR code size.

•Set “error_correction” to adjust error correction
capacity (options: L, M, Q, H).
These customization options allow you to create visually

appealing and functional QR codes that can be tailored to
your specific needs

LIMITATIONS AND CONSIDERATIONS

OF QR CODE GENERATORS
Limitations
1.Data Capacity: QR codes have limited data capacity

based on version and error correction level.
2.Scanning Issues: Poor printing quality or low contrast
can hinder scanning, especially with complex designs.
3.Error Correction: Higher error correction levels reduce
data capacity but enhance durability.
4.Customization Impact: Logos or colors may affect QR
code readability; test across devices
Considerations
1.Usage Context: Choose size and error correction level

based on environment and scanning device.
2.Compatibility: Ensure QR codes work with various
scanners and applications.
3.Data Sensitivity: Secure data and consider encryption for
sensitive information.
4.Design Balance: Maintain contrast and avoid excessive
customization to retain scan reliability.

CONCLUSION
1. Successfully created a user-friendly system for generating QR

codes from various data inputs.
2. Efficiently encodes data into scannable QR codes, ensuring
reliability and responsiveness.
3. Demonstrated practical application of data encoding for
personal and business use.
4. Thoroughly tested to ensure robustness and accuracy of QR
code generation.
5. Future enhancements could include more customization
options and improved backend scalability.
