A QR (Quick Response) code is a two-dimensional barcode that smartphones can scan to instantly open a URL, display text, save a contact, or connect to Wi-Fi. They were invented in 1994 and have become ubiquitous in marketing, product packaging, restaurant menus, event ticketing, and payment systems.
Error correction: QR codes include redundant data so they remain scannable even when partially damaged or obscured — useful when overlaying a logo on top of the QR pattern.
PNG vs SVG: PNG is a fixed-resolution raster image; choose a larger size for print use. SVG is a mathematical vector description that scales perfectly to any size, making it the better choice for high-quality print and design work.
