Frequently Asked Questions
How do I create a QR code for a PDF?
Paste the URL of your hosted PDF or upload the file directly. The QR code is generated instantly and links to the document.
Can I update the PDF without changing the QR code?
If you host the PDF yourself, you can replace the file at the same URL and the QR code will point to the updated version. If you uploaded via our tool, you would need to re-upload and generate a new code.
