How to automatically generate QR codes with "subtext"

Question

I want to automatically generate QR codes that display the content of the QR code (a transaction ID) beneath it. Then end product should be a pic (ideally png) with code + text in it.

I have been looking for libs with that capability, but so far was not successful.

Any hints? Thanks!

PS: currently working in Java (zxing), but everything that's practical will do!

Rather server sided. It's important that I wanted to do this in one step, i.e., without using imagemagick et al afterwards. — fluxon, Feb 25 '12 at 12:18

Also don't know a library for a direct solution, but it shouldn't be hard to combine your two requirements (1. generate QR Code image, 2. put some text beneath) in a single program.

I guess you already know how to generate and get your QR Code image. For the second step, manipulating the image, the following SO-questions have useful answers:
