Encode a string into a QR code with dimensions width x height, using error-correction level L and the smallest version for which he contents fit into the QR-code?

Parameters:

contents - String to encode into the QR code

width - width of the QR-code

height - height of the QR-code

Returns:

2D Greyscale map containing the visual representation of the QR-code, stored as a Bytematrix

Throws:

WriterException

encode

public ByteMatrix encode(String contents,
                         int width,
                         int height,

Encode a string into a QR code with dimensions width x height. Hints contains suggestions for error-correction level and version. The default error-correction level is L, the default version is the smallest version for which the contents will fit into the QR-code.

Parameters:

contents - String to encode into the QR code

width - width of the QR-code

height - height of the QR-code

hints - Map containing suggestions for error-correction level and version

Returns:

2D Greyscale map containing the visual representation of the QR-code, stored as a Bytematrix

Throws:

WriterException
