Is there a way for me to create a QR code that would take people to a specific website link, for free, with no bullshit involved?I know very little about QR codes myself.
In duckduckgo, search for “qr code <stuff you want in it>”.
>>1484230...that actually worked?? Thanks.
>>1484230>>1484231Oh followup question, how flexible are QR codes for being resized? Am I hard constrained to the size it's given me?
>>1484232There's no constraint on size so long as it's big enough to make out the pixels, and they're square.You can resize them to any multiple you want using nearest neighbor.That keeps the pixels sharp.You can do that in Photopea.One constraint a lot of QR readers do have is that there must be a white margin around the QR code.So don't crop out the white space around.
>>1484232Size doesn't matter (as long as it is big enough for every white and black squares to be read).
>>1484234>One constraint a lot of QR readers do have is that there must be a white margin around the QR code.Any rule of thumb for how much is needed? for me right now each black pixel of the QR code is 4x4 pixels so I just got finished giving it a 4 pixel border on all sides. Is this sufficient? It's going to be printed on paper eventually.
>>1484237The specs say 4 pixels.The QR code that comes out of duckduckgo has 2 pixels (the QR pixels 4 image pixels wide).That is enough to satisfy most readers already.If you want to make it more compliant, you can pad it with two more pixels-worth all around.
>>1484241Alright, I'll try and hope it works out. Thanks man.
I use this https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/offline-qr-code-generator/ firefox addonin the preferences you can set size, error correction percentage and color
>>1484251>error correction percentageWhat's that?
>>1484253basically if you scan it with low quality camera or the image is partially damaged, it should be still readablehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QR_code#Error_correction
>>1484251>>1484263>Doesn't support Pale MoonDamnit.
