Quick overview

QR code for form is a practical solution for businesses that need to share pdf form both physically and digitally. Instead of reprinting or sending new links, you print the QR code once and update the document online.

PDFko creates a stable public page at /d/[slug] that the QR code points to. When you replace the PDF with a new version, the link and QR code stay the same. This is especially useful for businesses, schools, offices, clinics and event organizers.

How it works

Upload your PDF

Upload a price list, menu, brochure or other PDF file to PDFko.

Get a public link and QR code

Instantly get a stable public URL and a downloadable QR code.

Print the QR code on your materials

Print the QR code on flyers, posters, price lists, windows or business cards.

Replace the PDF, keep the QR code

When you update the PDF, the public link and QR code stay the same. Visitors see the new version.

Who is this for

This solution is designed for businesses, schools, offices, clinics and event organizers. If you regularly update your pdf form and display it in physical locations — reception, window, table, packaging or flyer — an updatable PDF QR code saves time and printing costs.

You do not need your own website or technical support. Just upload a PDF, download the QR code and place it where customers, guests or patients will naturally see it.

Common problems without an updatable QR code

Outdated forms on the website lead to errors and unnecessary questions.
Printed forms must be replaced after every field or text change.
A shared cloud link may stop working.

Benefits

Stable QR code on flyers, notice boards or at reception.
Update the PDF form without changing the QR code.
Form available on mobile and desktop.

Use case examples

Real situations where qr code for form works well:

Why a plain static QR code is not enough

A static QR code points to one fixed URL. If you generate a QR code directly to a PDF file in the cloud and later rename, move or delete the file, the old QR code may stop working. This is a problem for printed materials meant to last months — price lists, menus, brochures or manuals.

PDFko creates a stable public page at /d/[slug] that displays the current PDF. The QR code always points to this page. When you replace the PDF, the URL and QR code stay the same — only the document behind the link changes. For pdf form, this is more practical than generating a new QR code with every update.
