I am generating QR codes using

I have the SMTPDebug=1 and it is not giving me any error

Here is a URI that I'm generating as an example:

EDIT: It seems the format of data is wrong, how should I output the QR code so i can embed it in the mail?

Here is my generateQR function after trying out what @Synchro said:

function generateQR($requestId){
    try {
        $writer = new PngWriter();
        $qrCode = QrCode::create($requestId)
        ->setEncoding(new Encoding('UTF-8'))
        ->setErrorCorrectionLevel(new ErrorCorrectionLevelLow())
        ->setSize(300)
        ->setMargin(10)
        ->setRoundBlockSizeMode(new RoundBlockSizeModeMargin())
        ->setForegroundColor(new Color(0, 0, 0))
        ->setBackgroundColor(new Color(255, 255, 255));

        $result = $writer->write($qrCode);
        echo $result->getString()
        } 
    catch (\Throwable $th) {
            echo $th;
        }
}

CodePudding user response：

PHPMailer doesn't have any support for data URIs, largely because it's not a good idea to use them because they have so many compatibility issues across email clients. Better to use a regular embedded image. To do that all you need to do is pass binary PNG data into that first param of the call to addStringEmbeddedImage instead of the URI-encoded data. I assume you'll need to amend your generateQR function to give you the data in that format.
