QR Code Version/Size

Capacity of the 40 version/sizes

QR Code Version/Size

QR codes come in 40 'sizes'; what they call 'versions'. By size I mean, the number of rows and columns of data/squares, not the physical size and not the number of pixels used per row/line (module) of squares and not the number of pixels high/wide for the code. This is also called the 'number of modules', so for example Version 1 is 21 modules high and 21 modules wide, so it's 'size' in this sense is 21x21. If you then print it at 84 pixels high, each data point will be 4 pixels by 4 pixels.

For the highest quality image, you will want to take a multiple of the number of modules to get the number of pixels. So again using Version 1 that is 21 high by 21 wide, the image that contains the QR code should be 21 pixels (well, realistically, 1 pixel won't read well) or 42 or 63 or 84 or 105 etc..,

Also remember you need some white space around it. Typically at whatever size you print it, you need 1/4" more around all 4 sides.
