How to create a QR code
- 1
Choose a content type
Pick Website URL, Plain Text, Email, Phone, or Wi-Fi. Each type uses the correct encoding so scanners handle it properly — URLs open in the browser, emails start a draft, and Wi-Fi codes join the network.
- 2
Enter your content and customize
Fill in the required fields and adjust foreground/background colors, size (128–1024 px), and error correction level. The preview updates live — check that colors have enough contrast to remain scannable.

Scan to test and download
Point your phone camera at the preview to verify it works, then download as PNG for general use or SVG for print. Files save as filenova-qr-code.png and filenova-qr-code.svg.
What is a QR Code Generator?
A QR (Quick Response) code is a two-dimensional barcode that stores information in a grid of black and white squares. When you scan it with a phone camera, the encoded data opens instantly — a website, a message, contact details, or a Wi-Fi connection. A QR Code Generator creates that image from your content so you can print it, share it, or embed it anywhere.
FileNova’s generator runs entirely in your browser. It encodes your content using the official QR standard, lets you customize colors and size, and produces both PNG (pixel-based, universal) and SVG (vector, infinitely scalable) files you can save with one click.
How to download a QR code
PNG download
Click Download PNG to save a raster image at your chosen size. PNGs display correctly everywhere — websites, Word documents, email signatures, social posts, and basic prints. The file is named filenova-qr-code.png.
SVG download
Click Download SVG to save a vector image that stays razor-sharp at any size. SVGs are ideal for posters, banners, business cards, merchandise, and professional printing. The file is named filenova-qr-code.svg.
Both formats contain the identical scannable QR data — only the image type differs. For web use, PNG is simplest. For print, prefer SVG. You can also Copy content to grab the encoded text (e.g., the WIFI: string) for pasting elsewhere.
Supported QR content types
| Type | Encoding | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Website URL | Plain URL | https://example.com |
| Plain Text | UTF-8 text | Hello, world! |
| mailto: | mailto:[email protected] | |
| Phone | tel: | tel:+1234567890 |
| Wi-Fi | WIFI:T;S;P;H; | WIFI:T:WPA;S:MyNet;P:pass;; |
Wi-Fi QR codes follow the widely supported WIFI: format (T = security, S = SSID, P = password, H = hidden). Most modern iOS and Android cameras recognize it natively and offer to join the network.
