How to Get Detailed Barcode Information

The Dynamsoft Barcode Reader SDK provides APIs for you to get the detailed barcode information like checksum digit, start/stop characters, error correction level, etc. To learn more about what information you can get, see the following items:

• OneDCodeDetails: C++ / Python / .NET
• QRCodeDetails: C++ / Python / .NET
• PDF417Details: C++ / Python / .NET
• DataMatrixDetails: C++ / Python / .NET
• AztecDetails: C++ / Python / .NET

Here we take QR Code as example and show how to get the version and model of a QR Code.

What is the Version of a QR Code?

What is the Model of a QR Code?
