One of the challenges with many of the free QR Code generators is that they have restricted the free QR code features to only linking to websites. I recently came across the free QR Code generator, Me-QR that generates a QR code and lets you link to many types of media with the free version.
Once you get to the Me-QR website, you will need to sign up for a free account. After that, it's just three simple steps to generate your QR Code.
Step 1: Select what your QR Code will link to
You can link your QR Code to a website, but you can also link to all of the following (and more):
I particularly like being able to link to a PDF document (an article, work document, or PDF of a PowerPoint presentation, etc.) and to link to text or an image with contact information, etc.
Step 2: Select your content and create your QR Code
Add the link or upload the content from your computer and click: Customize & Download QR.
Step 3: Customize and download your QR Code
Your QR Code is generated and you have the option to customize the look of your QR Code with frames based on pre-made templates, themes, holidays, and events. Once you have a design and color customization that you like, you can download your QR Code and use it in documents, slide decks, presentations, posters, and more!
What are some ways you can integrate QR codes linking to all these options into your profession?
This would be handy at work! I like that I can add these to posters so people can access additional information. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI love this! I have used so many QR codes only to find out they have broken and no longer work without some crazy expensive cost to use, only for a week, a month, or a one-time use fee. I appreciate all of these great tips and the work that it takes to research them.
