Advanced (error correction, shape, GS1)
Style (colors, frame, caption, export size)
Symbol contrast 100.0% (minimum 40%). The companion color adjusts automatically to hold the minimum; downloads additionally require the colored symbol to re-decode.
Outer frame
Frame and caption ship in the SVG download; PNG exports the bare symbol.

Usage
rMQR carries links, payments and credentials where phone cameras do the scanning: print it on packaging, bills and signage with a calm quiet zone.
- rMQR on product packaging linking to manuals or refills
- rMQR on Swiss-style bills and payment slips for banking apps
- rMQR proofs exported as SVG for signage and print
Shape
Pros
- rMQR scans on modern phone and industrial imagers.
- Every symbol is read back locally before preview or download.
- SVG export stays sharp for print; PNG covers quick sharing.
- Only the controls this symbology accepts are shown.
Cons
- rMQR needs calm quiet zones — nearby text breaks detection.
- Glare, blur and low contrast are the usual reasons a symbol will not read.
- Screenshots prove scannability, not print quality grading.
- Custom colors stay locked until contrast and tinted re-decode pass.
Form requirements
- Enter Short text for a rectangular symbol.
- Short text up to ~500 characters. Pin a version or leave auto.
- Downloads stay locked until the local read-back reproduces the payload.

How it works
Three steps, all on your device.
The same engine that reads 2D codes writes them — every symbol is decoded again before you see it.
Tune and style
Only the controls this symbology accepts are shown; every symbol is read back to prove it scans.
Download and print
Take a resolution-independent SVG or a PNG at your chosen module size. Nothing is uploaded.

What can I encode in rMQR?
Short text up to ~500 characters. Pin a version or leave auto. Example input is prefilled when the page loads.
How does rMQR stay scannable?
Error correction fixed by the symbology or QR-studio owned. Keep the quiet zone calm, use black-on-white for print, and export SVG for anything that gets resized.
Is my data uploaded anywhere?
No. Encoding and verification run entirely in your browser — the page makes no network requests with your data, stores nothing, and wipes the field after ten idle minutes.
