Encodes arbitrary text content that is displayed to the user upon scanning.

자주 묻는 질문

  
  

    일반 텍스트 QR 코드란 무엇인가요?
    
일반 텍스트 QR 코드는 URI 접두사 없이 임의의 텍스트를 인코딩합니다. 스캐너는 앱을 실행하지 않고 디코딩된 문자열을직접 표시합니다.

  

  
  

    QR 코드에 얼마나 많은 텍스트를 저장할 수 있나요?
    
버전 40 QR 코드는 최대 4,296개의 영숫자 또는 2,953개의 이진 문자(오류 정정 레벨 L)를 저장합니다. 더 짧은데이터는 더 적은 모듈이 필요합니다.

  

  
  

    텍스트 QR 코드는 어떤 인코딩 모드를 사용하나요?
    
텍스트 QR 코드는 문자 집합에 따라 숫자(숫자만), 영숫자(대문자 + 숫자), 바이트(전체 ASCII/UTF-8) 또는한자 모드를 사용합니다.
