Schaumburg, Illinois - Meadows Publishing Solutions announced the release of their 2D Bar Code Module for Adobe InDesign Creative Cloud, with a completely free license option for producing QR Codes. This release is an update to a previous version of the software, which supported Adobe InDesign CS5 and CS6.

The software module is designed to generate QR Code, Data Matrix, and PDF417 two-dimensional bar codes directly in any Adobe InDesign document. The module has also been integrated with the Meadows DesignMerge and AutoPrice software packages to support fully variable, multi-up 2D bar codes that can be driven by any database.

Features:
* Available for Adobe(R) InDesign(R) CS5, CS5.5 CS6, or Creative Cloud, Mac or Win platforms
* Creates QR Code, Data Matrix, and PDF417 bar codes directly in any InDesign document
* Offers complete control over sizing, encoding and styling aspects of the bar codes
* Integrated with Meadows DesignMerge and AutoPrice software for producing fully variable 2D bar codes from any database
* A Free license is available, which supports QR Code creation. Visit the website to register

Using this new plug-in module, 2D bar codes can be created inside of an InDesign frame, and the sizing and positioning of the codes is handled automatically. There are also several built-in templates for popular QR Code formats such as the vCard format, which has been utilized extensively in business card and other applications. Because the Meadows module uses a specially licensed font to produce the 2D codes, the module is lightning fast. When integrated with DesignMerge, customers are producing thousands of data-driven codes in minutes.

Free License Available:
To help promote the product, Meadows is currently offering a Free license of the new module, which is limited to the production of QR Codes. The free license can be obtained by visiting the website.

Database Integration:
The 2D Bar Code Module has been fully integrated with the Meadows DesignMerge and AutoPrice software products, allowing the user to create fully variable, multi-up QR Code, Data Matrix, or PDF417 bar codes directly in any InDesign document. This is a great option for everything from PURL's to Point of Purchase material. A video of this integration is available at the website.

Meadows Publishing Solutions Quote:
"2D bar coding continues to grow in popularity, and the need for InDesign users to easily create these codes has never been greater," said Meadows President, John Kriho. "By offering the free QR Code version of our module, users can now create QR Codes quickly, without leaving InDesign, and with an option to expand into fully variable codes in the future."

About DesignMerge(R):
DesignMerge Pro is a set of plug-in modules that provide Adobe InDesign users with sophisticated variable data publishing, personalized printing, and document automation features. DesignMerge can easily support variable text, picture, article, and even complete InDesign layouts and master pages. All of the features of Adobe InDesign are available when using DesignMerge software, so advanced features such as variable runarounds, multi-page composition, transparencies and type-on-a-curve are easily supported. The entire process is database-driven, completely flexible, and very easy to use.

About AutoPrice(TM):
AutoPrice is a set of plug-in modules that provide Adobe InDesign users with a very powerful set of data publishing features.
