QR Code Generator

How to create a QR code

1. Choose Website link or Plain text. Include https:// or http:// for a link. In text mode, meaningful spaces and tabs are preserved; line breaks are normalized to LF.
2. Select Generate and check the exact content below the preview. Standard URL normalization can add a trailing slash, remove a default port or encode international characters.
3. Download PNG for a raster image or SVG for vector artwork. Keep the white border and test the exported file with an independent scanner before sharing or printing a batch.

Static codes, borders and image sizes

A static QR code stores its content in the image. It is not a managed redirect, editable destination or scan analytics service. Changing the content requires a new image; availability of the linked page is a separate matter.

The white margin is a quiet zone four modules wide on every side. Do not crop it or place lettering or decorations inside it. The tool fixes the modules to black on an opaque white background.

Small, Standard and Large use 4, 8 and 12 whole pixels per module. Actual image dimensions depend on the amount of data. SVG retains the same module grid and margin as vector shapes; these sizes are not physical print recommendations.

Encoding uses UTF-8 with ECI 26 and medium error correction. These choices do not guarantee every scanner or print will work. Test the final file at the intended size, on the intended surface and with the scanners your audience will use.

Examples to try

The link https://example.com becomes https://example.com/. The full normalized address is stored directly, without shortening or a Findit redirect. Queries and fragments remain part of the address.

In Plain text mode, enter Meeting room A, a line break and Floor 2. A compatible scanner can display both lines. The generator does not turn text into a calendar event or a contact card.

Text such as 你好 or 😀 uses several UTF-8 bytes per character. The 1,000-byte limit is not a 1,000-character limit. Combining characters are not normalized into other forms.

Supported content and limits

Use an HTTP or HTTPS link, or plain text, up to 1,000 UTF-8 bytes after preparation. Raw input is bounded to 4,096 UTF-16 code units. There are no custom colors, logos, Wi-Fi forms, uploads, batch mode or dynamic codes.

Anyone with the image can read its content. A QR code is not encryption, proof of website safety or a promise of successful scanning. Do not put private information in a publicly displayed code.

Generation in your browser

This tool creates the symbol and download files in your browser without intentionally uploading or saving your input. The files contain the encoded content. Normal site services and consent settings remain separate.
