Resize QR code or Barcode generated by Barcode tool

Unable to resize a qr code or barcode generated by the Barcode tool.  

 

Using the 'Generate Barcode from Text' option, i have a column of text that has a length of 319 characters. The size of the qr code is 2310 bytes and size of barcode is 27002 bytes.

 

Is there a way to reduce the size of the qr code and barcode for a document via the render tool? 

 

I have noticed that the size of the qr code is smaller with less text, but I need to create a qr code for an url.

Didn't know Alteryx could read barcodes. Do you mind giving more information? What is this about - can't really visualize your problem.

@cburtonsc I would try using the Image Processing (alteryx.com) tool to reduce the scale (i.e. size), plus you could try a few options there like cropping if needed

@caltang  With the Intelligence Suite license, there is a tool called Barcode under Computer Vision that can read and generate barcodes and qr codes.

 

@alex  The Image Processing tool worked. I was able to reduce the size of the QR code.  Thanks.
