PDF QR Code Generator: how it works
A PDF QR code opens a document when scanned. Use it for brochures, price lists, manuals, forms and CVs, so people get the file without typing an address.
How to make a PDF QR code
- If your PDF is already online, paste its link in the generator above and style a free static code.
- To host the file with PurpleQR, create an account and choose the PDF type in the dashboard, then upload a PDF of up to 25 MB.
- Download the code as PNG, SVG or PDF and print it.
Tips for a code that scans every time
- Keep the PDF small and readable on a phone: large text, one column.
- A hosted (dynamic) PDF code lets you replace the file later without reprinting.
- Test the code on a phone with mobile data, not only on your office Wi-Fi.
Frequently asked questions
Can I update the PDF after printing the code?
With a hosted dynamic PDF code, yes: replace the file and the printed code keeps working. A static code that links to a file stays tied to that exact address.
How large can the PDF be?
PurpleQR accepts uploaded PDFs of up to 25 MB.
Is the PDF QR code free?
A static code that links to a PDF you host yourself is free to preview and, with a free account, to download. Hosted PDF codes are dynamic, so they are included in the 7-day Pro trial and then in Pro.
