Bulk Cards Image Export & ZIP
This feature exports QR code images grouped into three folders inside a ZIP archive.
Export appearance settings
Before starting the export, you can fully customize the appearance of the QR codes. The following options are available:
- Image size — Set the resolution of the exported images.
- Margin — Adjust the white space around the QR code.
- Background color — Choose a background color or set it to transparent.
- Foreground color — Define the color of the QR pattern itself.
- Export file format — Choose between PNG and SVG formats.
- Logo or icon overlay — Add your company logo or a desired icon in the center of each QR code to make them instantly recognizable and on-brand.
These settings are applied to all QR codes in the archive, ensuring a consistent and professional look across all exports.
The exported ZIP archive contains the following 3 folders with QR images:
1. "landings" folder
QR codes that link to the mini landing pages described above. Scanning these codes takes the user to the contact’s info page in a browser.
2. "offline" folder
QR codes containing embedded VCF (vCard) data. Scanning an offline QR code:
- Opens the contact card directly on the user’s device without internet access.
- Allows immediate saving of the contact to the phone’s address book.
- Works offline, perfect for events or places with poor connectivity.
3. "vcfs" folder
QR codes linking to online VCF files stored on the server. Advantages:
- The VCF file can be updated anytime, keeping contact details current without reissuing QR codes.
- Scanning downloads the VCF file which opens immediately in the phone’s Contacts app.
