Frequently asked questions

Can I turn a PDF into a QR code?

Yes. A PDF QR code links a scan to a PDF file or file URL so someone can view or download the document on their phone.

Should I use a static or dynamic PDF QR code?

Use dynamic if the file may change later. Use static only if the file location is permanent and you do not need tracking.

What are PDF QR codes good for?

They are commonly used for restaurant menus, brochures, sell sheets, event packets, manuals, and lead magnets.
