Frequently asked questions

Why is a color combination rejected?

The tool requires at least 4.5:1 contrast between foreground and background to reduce scanning failures.

Will every styled code scan?

No guarantee is possible. Test at the actual size, on the intended material, and with the target device, especially for dot styles or small output.
