Turn a PDF or image into a QR code

Use one Share Link for a PDF or image and replace the hosted file without changing the printed QR.

Turn a PDF or image into a QR code

Choose a PDF or image. QRStable will make a link and QR code for it.

Update the file later. Keep the same QR.

QR generation does not require an account. A free account is required only because QRStable needs to store this file for you.

How the file link works

  1. QRStable stores the file and creates a stable Share Link.
  2. The QR code contains that Share Link.
  3. You download and test the QR before using it.
  4. Replacing the file keeps the same Share Link and printed QR.

This workflow depends on QRStable continuing to host the file. It is different from a direct static QR.

Hosted link or direct QR?

A File QR contains a QRStable Share Link because the file must be stored somewhere. A regular static QR contains the final value directly and does not need QRStable after download.

Before printing

Scan the downloaded result on several phones at the size, distance, lighting and material you intend to use. The automated check catches common issues, not every physical printing condition.
