Tool introduction

What QR Code Generator does

The QR Generator turns plain text or a link into a QR code. When someone scans it with a phone camera, the phone can open the link or display the text.

QR codes are common on menus, signs, payment instructions, event posters, packaging, and office notices because they remove typing and reduce mistakes.

Privacy and processing

How your input is handled

  • The QR text is rendered to a canvas in your browser with the QR code library.
  • Generating and downloading the PNG does not call a ChlatWork API.
  • Anyone who scans the final QR code can see or open whatever text or link you encoded, so check the destination before printing.

  3. 3Check the size, margin, and error correction settings if you need a specific print result.
  4. 4Generate the QR code and review the preview.

  6. 6Test the QR code with your phone before printing or sharing it publicly.
