Generate QR Codes as Native SVG

Why this generator is different

Most QR code tools — even ones that claim SVG output — produce a grid of individual squares: one <rect> per dark module. That looks fine on screen, but causes real problems in a slicer or CAD tool. Touching rectangles create invisible seams that confuse extruders, leave hairline gaps under certain slicer settings, and cause double-pass burns in laser engravers.

This generator traces the entire QR boundary and merges all adjacent dark regions into single closed <path> polygons with no internal seams. The output is topologically clean geometry — one file, ready to extrude, emboss, or engrave without any post-processing.

Common use cases

• 3D-printed keychains & tags — embed a URL or contact card into a physical object. Use H error correction for small prints where fine detail may be lost.
• PrusaSlicer & Bambu SVG embossing — import the SVG as a modifier mesh. Clean merged paths extrude without gaps at any layer height.
• Laser engraving & CNC routing — no overlapping vectors means no double-pass burns. Works directly in LightBurn, Inkscape, and Illustrator without cleanup.
• Tinkercad & Fusion 360 — import as an SVG sketch and extrude to any height. Merged paths import as a single body, not hundreds of separate faces.
• Resin casting & signage — high-contrast codes cast cleanly because the geometry is a single contiguous region with no internal voids.

Choosing error correction

Error correction determines how much of the code can be damaged and still scan. Higher correction means more redundancy and a denser code.

• L — 7% · Best for screen display or high-quality flat prints. Smallest code size.
• M — 15% · Default. Good balance for most 3D prints and engravings.
• Q — 25% · Recommended for prints smaller than 30 mm or textured surfaces.
• H — 30% · Use for very small prints, rough materials, or when a logo occupies the center of the code.
