PDF QR Codes
Share PDF documents via QR code for menus, brochures, manuals, and more.
PDF QR codes let you share documents that users can view on their phone or download. Great for menus, brochures, manuals, price lists, event programs—anything you'd otherwise print.
For the full guide, see PDF QR Codes.
Quick Start
Click Create QR Code, select PDF, upload your file (max 10MB), add a title if you want, customize the design, and download.
Why Dynamic PDFs
With dynamic PDF codes, you can replace the document anytime without changing the QR code. Update the menu, fix a typo, add pages—the same QR code now shows the new content.
Perfect for Menus
Restaurant menus change constantly. With a dynamic PDF code, print the table tents once and update the menu whenever prices or dishes change.
Key Tips
Keep files under 5MB. Large PDFs load slowly on phones, and that's where most scans happen.
Design for mobile. Use readable fonts (14pt minimum), simple layouts, and test on an actual phone before printing.
Use a clear title. "Summer 2024 Menu" is good. "Final_final_v2.pdf" is not.
Updating Your PDF
Dashboard → find the code → Edit → upload new PDF → Save. Same QR code, new document.
Alternatives
For menus, also consider a Business Page (interactive, with categories) or a Website QR code linking to your online menu. PDF works best when you want to preserve your exact print design.
