QR code generator.
Your colors. Your link.

Use the QR code generator in three steps

1. Choose your destination

   Paste a public website, article or document URL. Use a direct code when its address should be stored in the image, or choose an editable destination if you want an intermediate short link.

2. Design the code

   Choose dark modules on a light background, upload a logo if needed and add a card caption. Use a preset as a starting point, then adjust its settings. The clear margin around the code is retained.

3. Download and test

   Choose PNG for a pixel image or SVG for a scalable vector file. The QR code generator checks the preview’s readability before enabling export. Scan the actual downloaded file with your phone before printing a batch.

PNG or SVG: choose the right download

PNG stores the QR code as pixels. The size setting controls its exported width: 600, 1,200 or 2,000 pixels. A card caption adds height below the code. Use PNG when inserting the image into ordinary documents, presentations or services that do not accept vector files.

SVG describes the modules as vector shapes. You can resize it without pixelating those shapes, which can help when preparing a print layout. The document or printing software must support SVG. Whichever format you choose, keep a clear margin and test the final physical size, surface and expected scanning distance.

Colors, logo and readability

The QR code generator requires a dark code on a light background with sufficient contrast. Very pale modules, dark backgrounds or a busy design can make scanning unreliable. Avoid cropping the clear border when placing the image in another document.

Your logo is read and resized locally. Supported formats are PNG, JPEG and WebP, with a maximum file size of 1 MB and a maximum side length of 4,096 pixels. The tool limits the logo’s area and checks the rendered code, but this does not replace testing on the device and printed material your readers will use.

Prepare your QR code for its final support

Start with the place where the image will be used: a screen, a presentation, a handout or a larger printed sign. Enter the actual destination in the QR code generator and open that page to confirm it is the one your reader needs. Choose whether the destination should remain directly encoded or be managed through a short link.

For a printed document, download a test image and insert it at the intended final size. Keep the full border visible and leave space between the code and neighboring text or artwork. Print a sample using the same paper and process as the final version. Scan it with a phone from the expected distance and under the lighting in which it will be read. A successful preview check on screen cannot predict every combination of printer, surface and camera.

Check the destination as well as the image

After scanning, verify the address before opening it and confirm that the page loads with the permissions your reader will have. A QR code does not remove a login requirement or make a private file public. If you share a protected document, set its access permissions separately and avoid publishing URLs that contain confidential tokens.

Keep the right files

Retain the downloaded PNG or SVG and a copy of the destination URL. If the QR code generator created an editable destination, keep access to the browser that holds its management key. Replacing a logo, a caption or colors creates a new image, while changing the destination of the encoded short link can leave the existing printed image intact. Before a large print run, test the final exported file again after any layout changes.
