What is a PDF QR code?
A PDF QR code encodes the web link to a PDF you host — on your site, Google Drive, Dropbox or any file host — so scanning opens the document instantly. The code is static and never expires; to swap the document later, keep the same link and replace the file behind it.
Three steps
How to create a PDF QR code
1
Host your PDF
Upload the PDF somewhere with a public link (your site, Drive or Dropbox) and copy that link.
2
Paste & brand it
Drop the link in, then add your colours, a logo and a “Scan for menu” frame.
3
Download & share
Export a print-ready PNG or vector SVG for tables, signage and packaging.
Use cases

FAQ
PDF QR codes, answered
Do you host my PDF?
No — we keep everything private and on-device, so you host the PDF yourself and we encode the link. That also means the file stays fully under your control.
Can I update the PDF later?
Yes, if you keep the same link. Replace the file at that URL (many hosts let you overwrite in place) and the code will open the new version.
Does the code expire?
The QR code never expires. It keeps working as long as the link to your PDF stays live.
