Where to keep the PDF a code opens

A PDF code points at a public https:// link to a file you host. Mosaqo does not upload or store the PDF, so the file has to live somewhere anyone can open without signing in.

Steps

  1. Put the PDF on your own website, or in a storage service with a public share link.
  2. Open that link in a private browser window. If it asks you to sign in, your customers will be asked too.
  3. Create a PDF code, paste the full link starting with https://, and give it a display name if you like — it becomes the card’s headline.
  4. Choose dynamic. When the file changes, upload the new one and point the code at its new address; the printed code keeps working.

How to check it worked

Scan the code on mobile data: the PDF opens without asking anybody to sign in.

What usually goes wrong

  • A share link that needs an account, or one that expires.
  • A static PDF code. Its address is printed into the pattern, so moving the file breaks every copy.
  • A very large file that takes a long time to open on a phone.
