How can I create multiple QR Codes from an Excel File?

hi there,

 

i trying set business cards qr code on of each card. therefore have excel spreadsheet, contains data necessary business card name, function, e-mail adress,... data filled in automatically using standard function tags each column (e.g. table column name filled in <<name>> in specific location on business card , once executed matched data excel file).

 

is there me automate personalization of qr codes?

 

all best

for free? not @ moment. cc have ability create qr codes 1 @ time. in cs6 (perhaps earlier versions?), regular poster/advanced scripter jongware devised script prepare qr code again, 1 @ time.

 

however, did build on jongware's qr code indesign file had necessary information in tagged text boxes , prepare qr codes accordingly. however, leave them in indesign file (e.g. not separate eps/pdfs).

 

so, long workaround be:

 

1. install script , read thread on adobe forums (jongware's qr code plus additional improvement): http://forums.adobe.com/message/4787823#4787823
2. data merge current data indesign file using similar structure fourth poster in post had written
3. once qr codes written, create pdf of file , use 1 of various methods break pdf single page files: http://colecandoo.wordpress.com/2013/07/13/breaking-up-is-hard-to-do-indesign-files-into-i ndividual-pdfs-that-is/

 

it's lot of work generate multiple qr codes. paid solution offered either meadows dps or woodwing (two companies have no affiliation whatsoever) or other plug-in provider matter: http://www.adobe.com/products/indesign/indepth.displaytab3.html may alternative worth pursuing.
