Text to QR code generator
Type or paste text and get a QR code instantly. Generation runs entirely in your browser with a local library — nothing is uploaded to PastePad servers.
Private by default
Unlike many online QR makers, this page does not send your text to an API to render an image. The matrix is drawn on a canvas locally, then offered as a PNG data URL for download.
When to use PastePad QR
- Encode a URL for slides or printed handouts
- Share Wi‑Fi setup strings or one-time codes carefully
- Pair with PastePad short links from the paste tool
Is there a length limit?
Very long text may exceed QR capacity at error-correction level L. Keep payloads concise for reliable scanning.
Can I customize colors or logos?
This tool focuses on a clear black-on-white code for maximum scan reliability.
Does downloading upload my file?
No. The download link uses a local data URL generated in your browser.
Will this work offline after the first load?
If the page and scripts are cached by your browser, generation needs no further network calls.
