Best Practices for QR Code Generation
📐 Size and Placement Guidelines
- Minimum print size: 2 x 2 cm (0.8 x 0.8 inches) for reliable scanning
- Recommended size: 3 x 3 cm (1.2 x 1.2 inches) or larger for optimal results
- Maintain a “quiet zone” (white space) around the QR code equal to 4 module widths
- Place QR codes at eye level when possible for easy scanning
- Ensure adequate lighting in the scanning environment
🎨 Design and Color Tips
- Maintain high contrast: dark foreground on light background works best
- Avoid light-colored QR codes on light backgrounds - they won't scan properly
- Test your color combinations on multiple devices before printing
- If adding a logo, keep it small (15-30% of QR code area maximum)
- Ensure logos don't interfere with critical QR code patterns
🔗 Content Optimization
- Use URL shorteners for long web addresses to create simpler QR codes
- Ensure destination URLs are mobile-optimized for better user experience
- Test all links before generating final QR codes
- For WiFi QR codes, verify network name and password accuracy
- Keep contact information current and properly formatted

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I edit a QR code after creating it?
Static QR codes (like ours) cannot be edited once created. The data is encoded directly in the image. However, if you use a URL shortener that supports link editing, you can change the destination without creating a new QR code.
What file format should I download?
For digital use (websites, social media, emails), PNG format works perfectly. For print materials where you might need to resize, SVG (vector) format is ideal as it maintains quality at any size without pixelation.
How do I test if my QR code works?
Simply open your smartphone camera app and point it at the QR code. Most modern smartphones (iOS 11+ and Android 8+) have built-in QR code readers. Test on multiple devices to ensure compatibility before mass printing.
Are there any limitations on QR code usage?
No, QR codes are free technology with no licensing fees. Once generated, you can use them for commercial or personal purposes without restrictions. There's no limit to how many times a QR code can be scanned.
