A bare QR code asks people to guess what happens. A frame answers the question in their head: "Scan for the menu", "Leave us a review", "Join our Wi-Fi", "See the photos". Specific beats generic: "Scan me" is better than nothing, "Order here" is better than "Scan me".
Seven frame styles: label below, label above, speech bubble, badge, ticket, phone, or none. Set the frame colour, text colour and one of four font families. The frame scales with the code so the text stays readable, and the whole thing exports as one SVG, PNG or PDF.
Frames also protect the quiet zone, the clear band around the code that decoders need, so a framed code placed next to other graphics is safer than a bare one.
Questions
Does the frame affect scanning?
No. The frame sits outside the quiet zone. The scan check runs on the framed design, so you can see for yourself.
Can I use my own font?
The frame text is real text in the SVG, so a designer can change the font in any vector editor before print.
