This also works well, when you are offline and bluetooth transfer fails. So here is the highly configurable business card or visiting card with full vcard as QR-Code, ready to send to online printers. You can specify the exact size of the paper and the content within the paper, inluding generation of crop marks. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The package’s Catalogue entry can be viewed at https://ctan.org/pkg/businesscard-qrcode The package’s files themselves can be inspected at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/xetex/latex/businesscard-qrcode/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.
