Problème d'accente à la génération d'un QR Code Carte de visite sous Indesign

Avez-vous trouvé une solution ?

Tous les accents ne sont pas reconnus et remplacés par d'autres caractères !

InDesign's QR code generator creates v2.1 vCard data, which does not recognize most accented characters. (It is a somewhat outdated, limited-function implementation.)

 

The solution is to use another QR code generator that supports v3.0 vCard, or to "hand code" your vCard data in a text field. Wikipedia has a pretty good breakdown of the field types, codes, etc. and there are other resources out there. use the Plain Text mode to encode your own QR codes according to whatever format works best for you.

With the release of v20.1, InDesign supports v3.0 vCard format when using the form-based contact generation mode. All of the problems with accented characters etc. have been resolved with this change.
