conversion – Dakwamine

Didactic I am writing a little tutorial here for creating a QRCode for a vCard file. As I don’t use it that much, it feels like I need a memo for it. Preparation We will use a vCard file named test.vcf which contains the following:

BEGIN:VCARD
VERSION:2.1
N:Family Name;First Name;;;
FN:First Name Family Name
TITLE:Your job title
EMAIL:emailaddress@example.com
ADR;HOME:;;123, avenue des Champs-Élysées;Paris;Île-de-France;75008;France
TEL;TYPE=cell:+33 123456789
URL:http://example.com
END:VCARD

BEGIN:VCARD

VERSION:2.1

N:Family Name;First Name;;;

FN:First Name Family Name

TITLE:Your job title

EMAIL:emailaddress@example.com

ADR;HOME:;;123, avenue des Champs-Élysées;Paris;Île-de-France;75008;France

END:VCARD

Preparation We will use this file named texfile.tex as the .tex to convert:

\documentclass[12pt]{article}
\pagenumbering{gobble}% Remove page numbers (and reset to 1)
\begin{document}
My first \TeX~document.
$s_n = (Ta)_n = \displaystyle\sum_{k=0}^\infty T_{nk} a_k$
\end{document}

\documentclass[12pt]{article}

\pagenumbering{gobble}% Remove page numbers (and reset to 1)

\begin{document}

My first \TeX~document.

$s_n = (Ta)_n = \displaystyle\sum_{k=0}^\infty T_{nk} a_k$

\end{document}

Result file Generating PNG images Packages you need: texlive (or any other TeX program, I guess) dvipng Step by step In the Terminal, go to the directory containing the .tex file. Execute this:

$ latex texfile.tex
