KazQR stands out in the Autodesk App Store library for outputting QR codes as real DWG/DXF vectors alongside standard raster formats, with the 2022 release producing fully editable CAD drawings.
KazQR generates QR codes in two forms: as raster images in TIFF, JPEG, BMP, PNG, and GIF formats, and as DWG or DXF files that carry real vectors for CAD systems. The 2022 release allows QR codes to be created as a fully editable CAD drawing, so the vector output can be worked with directly rather than treated as a flat image.
On the design side, KazQR includes full logo ability with a maximum 35% cover, a free choice of QR code background, and free color selection. Four error correction levels are available, and the tool handles Unicode text, so Arabic, Japanese, and other non-Latin letters can be encoded.
For larger jobs, KazQR can generate codes from a prepared list, from an Excel or Access table, or from a CSV formatted list. Settings and text can be saved and loaded, making it straightforward to reuse configurations across sessions.
KazQR is best for 3ds Max and CAD users who need QR codes as either raster images or editable DWG/DXF vectors, including batch runs from spreadsheets or CSV lists.
KazQR is completely free to download and use.
KazQR creates QR codes as vector DWG and DXF files intended for CAD systems, generating them as real vectors rather than flattened images. The 2022 release produces the code as a fully editable CAD drawing, so the geometry can be worked with directly. Alongside the vector output, KazQR also creates QR codes as raster images in TIFF, JPEG, BMP, PNG, and GIF formats, giving you both a CAD-ready file and standard image formats from the same tool.
KazQR supports batch generation from several sources. It can produce codes from a prepared list, from an Excel or Access table, and from a CSV formatted list. Settings and text can also be saved and loaded, so a configuration can be reused across sessions. This makes it possible to create many QR codes from existing data rather than entering each one individually.
KazQR includes Unicode ability, which allows it to encode Arabic, Japanese, and other non-Latin letters in the QR codes it generates. This covers text beyond the standard Latin alphabet, so codes are not limited to Western characters. Along with text encoding, KazQR offers four error correction levels, letting you choose how much redundancy the code carries. The text used for each code can also be saved and loaded, so entries can be reused rather than retyped, and this Unicode text applies whether you output the code as a raster image or as a DWG/DXF vector.
KazQR provides full logo ability, allowing a logo to cover up to a maximum of 35% of the QR code. It also gives a free choice of QR code background and free color selection, so the appearance of each code can be adjusted to suit a brand or layout. These design options apply to the codes KazQR generates in both its raster output, in formats such as TIFF, JPEG, BMP, PNG, and GIF, and its vector DWG or DXF output. Settings can be saved and loaded, so a chosen look can be reused across codes.
KazQR is listed as free in this catalog, so there is no price shown here. Licensing terms can change over time, so for the current details it is best to check the developer's page on the Autodesk App Store. The plugin comes from BackToCAD Technologies, LLC, and the listing here reflects version 2.04, last updated in February 2021. For what you get, KazQR generates QR codes as raster images and as DWG or DXF vectors for CAD systems, with logo, color, Unicode, and batch options included.
