QR Code size

kai

hallo timo,
ich würde gerne den qr code in meine rechnung einfügen.
leider ist er viel zu gross (PDF layout 4)
auch wäre eine plazierung bei der kontonummer klasse, wenn ich im qr code diese nutzen möchte.
und die schrift im hauptteil finde ich auch zu klein.
wäre toll, wenn man das mal irgendwann beeinflussen könnte.
danke und viele grüsse, kai

timo

hello timo,
i would like to insert the qr code into my invoice.
unfortunately it is much too big (PDF layout 4)
also a placement next to the account number would be great if i want to use it in the qr code.
and the font in the main part i also find too small.
would be great if you could influence this at some point.
thanks and best regards, kai

timo

Thanks for posting your feature request in English.
I am not trying to nitpick, but I created the "PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING*" post to keep the forum organized and me not having to ask the same questions all them time ("What app version are you on?", "What operating are you using the app on?"etc). I created placeholders in the template when creating a new post to fill out, to make this easier for users.
Multiple feature requests in a single thread (in your case "smaller QR code" + "font in main part is too small" + "different placement of QR code") make it hard to have a focused discussion. Thanks for understanding!

Let's focus on your first request: the QR code size. What QR code option did you select in the app settings and how small should it be in your opinion? Half the size?

hi timo, thanks for replying to quickly!
half the size would be good i think. now it is huge and looks pretty awkward i find.
maybe i could trick the layout in creating a qr code file which uses lots of white space around the eges?!
i tried "eigenes bild" und "girocode"
best wishes, kai

Absolutely, you could do that, but it wouldn't be very convenient for "Girocode" because the QR Code contents are created dynamically by the app, using information from the invoice.
I am not sure if I want to reduce the QR Code size for all users, because when there is more information to be encoded, a QR code can get very complex and can only be scanned if it's large enough. But if more users are asking for such a setting, I might consider an option to adjust the QR code size when enabling the feature in the app settings

hi timo,
thanks for the explanation!
since i need only one qr-code for all my invoices, i will try it my way. or is the amount of the invoice also included in the code?
but if you would add the option to have it displayed half size - i would welcome it 🙂
best wishes, kai

timo

kai or is the amount of the invoice also included in the code?

Yes the invoice amount is also encoded in the QR code

thanks!
