Question 1

What can the QR code point to?

Accepted Answer

Pick a destination type and fill in the field: a web page, a phone number, an email, an SMS text message, a Wi-Fi network, or plain text. The builder encodes whichever one you choose.

Question 2

What file formats can I download the code in?

Accepted Answer

You can download the code on its own as PNG, SVG or JPEG, or download the full leaflet as PNG or JPEG. SVG is vector, so it stays sharp at any print size.

Question 3

How do I know it will still scan once printed?

Accepted Answer

The built-in Print Check works out the printed module size, contrast and how far away the code will still scan for your chosen leaflet size and scan distance - then flags it as Ready or Not ready before you send anything to print.

Question 4

Can I style the code to match my brand?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Choose a style preset, module and corner shapes, colours or a gradient, a transparent background, add a logo in the middle and a caption. Damage tolerance controls how much smudging or folding the code can still take.

Question 5

Can I place the code on my own leaflet artwork?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Upload your artwork and either position the code by hand - drag it or snap it to a corner - or let "Make this Leaflet" find the quietest spot inside your print margins and style the code to suit.

Question 6

Can I track how many people scan it?

Accepted Answer

Turn on "Tag the link so you can measure the drop" so scans can be measured. If you're signed in, you can also link the code to one of your campaigns so its scans show up separately in your Marketize analytics.
