@azzie a datamatrix code in particular can survive up to ~30% loss, and doesn't even require the dots to be square. they can be circles, this is done fairly frequently on equipment where it's annoying to do squares, like if you're making tiny dents with a needle

it absolutely does not care if it's ink, dents, dots, squares, as long as your camera picks it up it will decode
