I will assume that users have a basic understanding of how to use mail merge in Word from an Excel file. This procedure describes a method for producing stickers in Microsoft Word that contain QR codes. Best of all, I can generate thousands of QR codes from an Excel spreadsheet using a familiar mail merge function which saves me lots of time. As it turns out, Office 365 (ie the latest version of Word) has a native capacity to generate QR codes without the need to pay for additional plugins. In my line of work, I need to produce thousands of bar codes and I don’t have the time to craft them all by hand. Unfortunately, most of these utilities are clunky and require many steps to produce a single bar code. QR codes offer many advantages over the traditional line-type bar codes that have been in use for the last three decades, including better readability.Īn industry has developed around supplying users with expensive QR code plugins for Microsoft Office programmes that rely on Visual Basic or ActiveX to work.
Did you know that it is possible to generate fully-functional QR codes in Microsoft Word using mail merge without the need for third-party plugins?
