Paste your destination link into EZQR, download a vector (SVG) or high-resolution PNG, place it on your poster with a clear quiet zone, and test the scan before printing.

## What the video covers

1. **Pick the link your poster should point to**  - A landing page, menu, signup form, video, social profile - wherever you want people who scan the poster to land.
2. **Paste it into EZQR's generator**  - On the home page, paste the URL into the generator. The QR code preview updates instantly.
3. **Download as SVG for large posters, or PNG for small ones**  - Use the SVG (vector) download so the code stays razor-sharp at any size - essential for large-format posters. A 300 DPI PNG is fine for letter-size posters.
4. **Place it on the poster with breathing room**  - Keep a clear quiet zone (blank margin) around the code and put it where a phone can reach it. Size the code so Code Size ÷ 10 covers the distance people will scan from.
5. **Test the scan before you print the run**  - Print one proof and scan it with both an iPhone and an Android before committing to the full print run.
