QR Code option for printable view.

I think it would be really neat if there was an option in the admin at page level to add a QR Code to printable view, so that if someone was printing something out to take on the road, they could easily make a visit back to the full version page, maybe to complete a form or something, by scanning the code containing the URL with their smartphone.

Re: QR Code option for printable view.

Hi,

This is a pretty cool idea and I found an easy way to implement it using the google charts api to generate the QR code image, so I implemented it this morning. Its in the source code repository now so it will be in the next release. You'll be able to add this in the layout.master of your printerfriendly skin:

<portal:QRCodeImage id="qr1" runat="server" AutoDetectPageUrl="true" />

Best,

Joe

Wow thanks Joe - awesome response time! 

I'll have a play and see what I can do with it.
