\title{Package \texttt{hvqrurl}\\Creating a QR-code of an URL in the margin \\\small ver 0.09}
\author{Herbert VoÃŸ\thanks{\protect\url{hvoss@tug.org}}}
\date{\today}
\maketitle


\begin{abstract}
This package allows to draw an URL as a QR code into the margin of a one- or twosided
document. The following packages are loaded by default:
\LPack{qrcode}, \LPack{marginnote}, \LPack{url}, \LPack{xcolor},
and 
\LPack{xkeyval}.
\end{abstract}


\section{Package option}
There is only one package option \Lkeyword{forget}. If it is used, then all
qrcodes are always created new and the already existing codes in the \Lext{aux} file
are not used. The deafult is not to use this option. For example: 100 qrcodes needs
about 30 seconds with option \Lkeyword{forget}, but only 4 seconds without it. It is obvious
that for the first \LaTeX\ run the codes will allways be created new.
If  a qrcode is
created, e.g. for \hvqrurl{https://pkks.de}, then there is something like 

\begin{verbatim}
\qr@savematrix{https://pkks.de}{2}{3}{11111110001010011011111111000001001110110101000001101110100
0000011101011101101110101010001000101110110111010001111110010111011000001011010001001000001111111
1010101010101111111000000001111001110000000001100010000011101011010000000010011010110001101011001
0011100111001010111101101011001011110011100100011110010100001011010000010010010100101101101100011
1101111011111111110001101001010000001010011111100011100011000101011111100100000000011101110100010
0011111111001100110101010001100000100101100110001001110111010001010011111100001011101000110010110
010100101110101010010000011101110000010101110101001100001111111001001011100001001}
\end{verbatim}

in the \Lext{aux} file (all in one line!). This is always used in following
\LaTeX\ runs and created only new if the URL changes or the option \Lkeyword{forget}
is used.

\section{The macros}

\begin{BDef}
\Lcs{hvqrset}\Largb{key=value, \ldots}\\
\Lcs{hvqrurl}\OptArg{key=value, \ldots}\Largb{URL}\\
\Lcs{hvqrurl*}\OptArg{key=value, \ldots}\Largb{URL}
\end{BDef}

With the default macro \Lcs{hvqrurl} the URL is printed as as QR code into the margin and
in the the text as usual with the macro \Lcs{url}, for example \hvqrurl{https://mirror.ctan.org/pkg/hvqrurl}.
With \LPack{hyperref} you'll get the the same color for the QR code as for  the URL link and, of course,
it is also a link. This example shows the output of the  QR code with the default setting and
an active \LPack{hyppref}.
The star version of the command
prints only the QR code but not the URL in the text.

With \Lcs{hvqrset} one can set the optional arguments globally. For example if one do not want all
QR codes not as a link when using \LPack{hyperref}:

\begin{lstlisting}
\hvqrset{qrlink=nolink} 
\end{lstlisting}


\section{Optional arguments}

\subsection{No link with \LPack{hyperref}}

This needs package hyperref, which is loaded by default. With the optional argument
\Lkeyword{nohyperref} you can prevent the loading of this package.

\begin{lstlisting}
With qrlink=nolink the QR code is no link: \hvqrurl[qrlink=nolink]{https://mirror.ctan.org/pkg/hvqrurl}.
The default setting is qrlink=link.
\end{lstlisting}
With \Lkeyset{qrlink=nolink} the QR code is no link: \hvqrurl[qrlink=nolink]{https://mirror.ctan.org/pkg/hvqrurl}.
The default setting is \Lkeyset{qrlink=link}. Without using \LPack{hyperref} this optional argument
has no meaning. The optional argument \Lkeyword{linktext} is also only valid, 
if hyperref is aktive.






\subsection{Color of the QR code}
The default color is \Lkeyval{black}. It can be changed by
the optional argument \Lkeyword{qrcolor}. The package 
\LPack{xcolor}\hvqrurl*[qrlink=nolink,qrcolor=red!40!white]{https://mirror.ctan.org/pkg/xcolor}
is loaded by default, 
the reason why an extended color definition is possible. For this example we used

\begin{lstlisting}
The package xcolor\hvqrurl*[qrcolor=red!40!white]{https://mirror.ctan.org/pkg/xcolor}
 is loaded by default, ...
\end{lstlisting}

\subsection{Vertical position of the QR code}
By default the baseline of the QR code is nearly at the same height as the baseline of the text.
However, when changing the size of the QR code it may be nessesary to move up or down the QR code.
The default value of \Lkeyword{qradjust} is \verb|-1.5\normalbaselineskip|. Setting the value
to 0pt the QR code 
\hvqrurl[qrlink=nolink,qradjust=0pt]{https://latex.texnik.de/tutorials/packages/#header-footer} 
is moved down which is the default
setting without a vertical adjustment.

\begin{lstlisting}
The default value of qradjust is \verb|-1.5\normalbaselineskip|. Setting the value
to 0pt the QR code 
\hvqrurl[qradjust=0pt]{https://latex.texnik.de/tutorials/packages/#header-footer} 
is moved down which is the default setting without a vertical adjustment.
\end{lstlisting}


\subsection{Size of the QR code}
By default the QR code is a square with height and width of 1cm.
it can be changed by setting \Lkeyword{qrheight} to another value, for example to 2cm:
\hvqrurl*[qrlink=nolink,qrheight=2cm]{https://identity.fu-berlin.de/idp-fub/profile/SAML2/Redirect/SSO;jsessionid=71C984647E3B8F2E716CA067CB13387E?execution=e1s1}
This is an extremely long url where it may make sense to use a larger QR code.

\begin{lstlisting}
it can be changed by setting qrheight to another value, for example to 2cm:
\hvqrurl*[qrheight=2cm]{https://identity.fu-berlin.de/idp-fub/profile/SAML2/Redirect/SSO;jsessionid=71C984647E3B8F2E716CA067CB13387E?execution=e1s1}
This is an extremely long url where it may make sense to use a larger QR code.
\end{lstlisting}


\subsection{QR code level}
The QR code specification includes four levels of encoding: 
Low (L) (\hvqrurl[qrlink=nolink]{https://www.tug.org/}), Medium (M), Quality (Q), 
and High (H) (\hvqrurl[qrlink=nolink,qradjust=0pt,qrlevel=H]{https://www.tug.org/}), 
in increasing order of error-correction capability. 
In general, for a given text a higher error-correction level requires 
more bits of information in the QR code. 

\begin{lstlisting}
The QR code specification includes four levels of encoding: 
Low (L) (\hvqrurl{https://www.tug.org/}), Medium (M), Quality (Q), 
and High (H) (\hvqrurl[qradjust=0pt,qrlevel=H]{https://www.tug.org/}), 
in increasing order of error-correction capability. 
\end{lstlisting}

The first QR code has the default level \Lkeyval{M} and the last one the
level \Lkeyval{H}. In general the user has not to set this keyword it will be
controlled internally by the package.


\subsection{Inner or outer margin for  the QR code}
By default the QR code is set in the right (oneside document) or outer margin (twoside) of the
document. This one (\hvqrurl{https://hvoss.org}) is at the default position.
With the optional argument \Lkeyword{qrreverse} it can be placed in the left or inner margin.
This one (\hvqrurl[qrreverse]{https://latex.texnik.de}) is in the other margin.

\begin{lstlisting}
This one (\hvqrurl{https://hvoss.org}) is at the default position.
With the optional argument \Lkeyword{qrreverse} it can be placed in the left or inner margin.
This one (\hvqrurl[qrreverse]{https://latex.texnik.de}) is in the other margin.
\end{lstlisting}

\subsection{Alternative link text}
By default the QR code is set with the given text. If the link is too long, one
can use a short link with the optional argument \Lkeyword{linktext} for the text and 
the long link for the qrcode, like
this one: \hvqrurl[linktext=https://www.uni-bonn.de]%
{https://www.uni-bonn.de/de/studium/studienangebot/studiengaenge-a-z/kunstgeschichte-bazf?set_language=de}.


\begin{lstlisting}
By default the QR code is set with the given text. If the link is too long, one
can use a short link with the optional argument \Lkeyword{linktext} for the text and 
the long link for the qrcode, like
this one: \hvqrurl[linktext=https://www.uni-bonn.de]%
{https://www.uni-bonn.de/de/studium/studienangebot/studiengaenge-a-z/kunstgeschichte-bazf?set_language=de}.
\end{lstlisting}

It makes no sense to use the star version \Lcs{hvqrurl*} together with the optional argument
\Lkeyword{linktext}!
