Ticket Generation Script

This script is designed to generate festival tickets with a given background and unique QR codes for each ticket. It uses the Pillow library for image processing.

Requirements

• Python 3.x
• Pillow library (Install using pip install Pillow)

Usage

1. Prepare the folder structure:

• Create an output folder where the generated tickets will be saved.
• Create an input folder containing:
• A background file (e.g., ticket.png)
• All the QR codes to print (PNG or JPG files, names do not matter)

2. Edit the script:

• Set the blank_ticket_file_name to the name of your background file.
• Set input_folder_abs_path to the absolute path of your input folder.
• Set output_folder_abs_path to the absolute path of your output folder.

3. Adjust QR code size and position:

• The size of the QR code is defined by sq_fit_size (default is 300 pixels).
• Adjust paste_x and paste_y to find the right coordinates for pasting the QR code on the ticket background. These coordinates are calculated in pixels.

4. Run the script:

• Execute the script using python QRPaster.py.
• The generated tickets will be saved in the output folder with filenames qr_0.png, qr_1.png, etc.

Example

If you have the following files in your input folder:

• ticket.png (background file)
• qr1.png (QR code file)
• qr2.png (QR code file)

After running the script, you will get:

• qr_0.png in the output folder (ticket with qr1.png)
• qr_1.png in the output folder (ticket with qr2.png)
