How to create it
- Paste or type your text (up to ~4000 characters).
- Keep it short for small print — dense patterns are harder to scan.
- Download PNG/SVG and verify the exact characters decode.
Plain-text codes support Unicode, so international characters and emoji encode correctly. Very long text creates dense patterns: prefer 200 characters or fewer for packaging and signage.
Text codes display the raw content — never encode passwords or secrets you would not print on paper.

Frequently asked questions
How much text fits?
Up to ~4000 characters is accepted, but short texts scan far more reliably, especially when printed small.
Do text codes need internet?
No — the text is inside the pattern and decodes offline.
Special characters supported?
Yes — UTF-8 including accented and non-Latin scripts is encoded correctly.
