A real-world example

An organizer prints the PDFQR code on every badge weeks ahead. On the morning of the summit, a session moves to Hall B. The organizer uploads the revised agenda, and every attendee who scans sees the right room.

Best practices
Plan for a busy venue
Venues are hard on phones: crowds, weak signal and little time.
- Keep PDFs light so they load on congested networks
- Put the agenda first in the list
- Test reception at the venue beforehand
- Print a short URL under the code as a backup
- After the event, add slides and a feedback form
Why PDFQR fits
- Print weeks ahead without risk
- Last-minute changes in seconds
- Branded with your event identity
- Real-time scans during the event

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Can I print badges before the agenda is final?
Yes. Upload a draft now and replace it with the final version later. The code on the badges stays the same.
What happens to the codes after the event?
Keep them useful: add the slides, a PDF of recording links or a feedback form.
Can sponsors have their own codes?
Yes. Create as many codes as you like, each with its own documents.
Can I replace a PDF after printing the QR code?
Yes. Upload the new version in your dashboard and the same QR code opens it straight away. Nothing needs to be reprinted.
What should I check before printing?
Scan the downloaded code on a couple of phones, open every PDF on mobile data, and test a printed proof at the real size. Keep a short written URL nearby for anyone who can’t scan.
How much does PDFQR cost?
One plan: $99/year USD, billed annually, which works out to $8.25 a month. It includes unlimited QR codes, PDFs, edits and scans, branded pages and analytics. There are no setup or per-code fees.
