#### Parameters
- String
- Text/payload to be encoded inside the QR code
-
Int32
- Amount of px each dark/light module of the QR code shall take place in the final QR code image
- Color
- Color of the dark modules
- Color
- Color of the light modules
- Color
- Color of the background
- QRCodeGenerator.ECCLevel
- The level of error correction data
- Boolean (Optional)
- Shall the generator be forced to work in UTF-8 mode?
- Boolean (Optional)
- Should the byte-order-mark be used?
- QRCodeGenerator.EciMode (Optional)
- Which ECI mode shall be used?
- Int32 (Optional)
- Set fixed QR code target version.
- Bitmap (Optional)
- A bitmap object that will be used as background picture
- Double (Optional)
- Value between 0.0 to 1.0 that defines how big the module dots are. The bigger the value, the less round the dots will be.
- Boolean (Optional)
- If true a white border is drawn around the whole QR Code
- ArtQRCode.QuietZoneStyle (Optional)
- Style of the quiet zones
- ArtQRCode.BackgroundImageStyle (Optional)
- Style of the background image (if set). Fill=spanning complete graphic; DataAreaOnly=Don't paint background into quietzone
- Bitmap (Optional)
- Optional image that should be used instead of the default finder patterns
#### Return Value
Bitmap
QRCode graphic as bitmap
