Using barcodes and QR codes

You can use barcodes and QR codes in PDF templates.

Barcodes

Barcode can be added with barcode tag:

<barcode code="978-0-9542246-0" type="EAN13" text="1" size="1" height="1" />

You can find available barcode types and examples on mPDF barcode manual

QR codes

QR code can be added with barcode tag with type="QR" attribute:

<barcode code="Your message\ngoes here" type="QR" size="0.8" error="M" disableborder="1" />

QR code code can contain \n or \r\n sequences that will be converted to LF or CRLF characters.

If you get error when using QR code, make sure you have mpdf/qrcode installed.

It can be installed with the following SSH command:

composer require mpdf/qrcode
