QR IMAGE PREPARATION · Workflow idea

Make a scannable image that leads exactly where you intend.

Prepare a QR image from a web address or other text for a flyer, event, product, or information card. Keep the encoded content easy to inspect, confirm the image scans as expected, and have a responsible person approve the final code and its placement before printing or sharing it publicly.

A QR image paired with its readable contents, intended placement, and review status.

Keep in mind

A QR image can conceal a changed or unsafe destination, and an unreadable code can disrupt an event or customer experience. Verify the decoded content, test the image on suitable devices, and approve the exact image and placement before it is printed or shared externally.
