Abstract
One embodiment provides a system for transferring a file from a portable device to a scanning device. During operation, the system displays an optical code associated with the file on the portable device. Next, the system detects successful scanning of the current optical code by the scanning device. Subsequently, the system displays a next optical code associated with the file on the portable device, thereby allowing the scanning device to decode the file after a sequence of optical codes are scanned.
