Making a menu code that survives a busy dining room

Link to a menu that loads quickly on a phone. A simple web page usually beats a large PDF on a weak signal. Print the code at least 3 cm wide for a table card, and larger for a window, since scanning distance grows with size. Keep it on a matte, flat surface away from glare, and wipe-clean stock helps. If your menu link might change, a static code will keep pointing at the old address, so consider a dynamic code instead.

Questions

Should I link to a PDF or a web page?

A web page loads faster and reads better on a small screen. A PDF is fine if it is a single light file and you host it somewhere stable.

How big should the code be on a table?

At least 3 cm for a code scanned from arm's length. As a rule of thumb, the scanning distance is about ten times the printed width.

What if I change my menu?

If you update the file at the same address, the code keeps working. If the address changes, a static code needs reprinting. A dynamic code lets you repoint it.
