QR Code Package
The QR Code package lets you generate, customise, and distribute QR code snapshots. Each snapshot links a scannable code to a target URL, with full control over its visual appearance.
# Overview
A QR Code snapshot is a saved configuration that contains:
- A name for internal identification
- A target — the URL or content the QR code points to
- An appearance — colors, fonts, and layout settings
# Creating a Snapshot
Navigate to Packages → QR Code → Create. The creation form has three tabs:
# Target Tab
This is the first and required tab. Configure:
- Name — auto-populated with the current date (e.g.
QR.CODE.14-04-2026), editable at any time. - Status — set to Active by default.
- Target Type — choose between a direct URL or a data-driven target.
- Target URL — the destination the QR code will resolve to when scanned.
Click Create to save the snapshot. You will be automatically redirected to the update view where the remaining tabs become available.
# Appearance Tab
Available after the snapshot is created. Controls the visual style of the QR code itself:
- QR Code Color — the foreground colour of the QR code modules.
- Background Color — the area behind the QR modules.
- Style — choose between Square, Dot, or Round module shapes.
# Layout Tab
Controls how the QR code is presented on the printed or exported card:
- Orientation — Vertical (portrait card) or Horizontal (landscape card).
- Layout Style — Default (text above QR) or QR Above (QR code first).
- Title Font — family, size, and weight for the main heading.
- Subtitle Font — family, size, and weight for the secondary line.
# Download & Print
From the update view, two export actions are available:
- Download SVG — saves the raw vector QR code as an
.svgfile, ideal for high-resolution printing. - Print to PDF — renders the full preview card (including title and layout) as a PDF using the configured orientation.
# QR Code Settings
Global defaults for all QR code snapshots are managed at Packages → QR Code → Settings:
- QR Code Color — default foreground colour (default:
#000000). - QR Code Background Color — default background colour (default:
#ffffff). - QR Code Style — default module shape: Square, Dot, or Round (default: Square).
