An experimental support for QR code and PDF417 barcodes has been added in DYMO Label 8.3. You will have to edit a label file manually, because there is no UI support yet. Just create a label in DYMO Label, save it into a file, open a file in your preferred xml editor, locate barcode type element (XPath is like /DieCutLabel/ObjectInfo/BarcodeObject/Type); enter “QRCode” or “Pdf417 ” for the Type inner text. Now you can load this label using DYMO Label Framework JavaScript Library and set the barcode content as for any other barcode type, e.g. by using label.setObjectText() or record.setText(). It will work with other APIs we provide as well.
Here is a sample label contains both barcode types, http://labelwriter.com/software/dls/sdk/samples/QA-and-Pdf417.label
