How this actually works
Each tool runs entirely with JavaScript already loaded in this page — PDF tools via pdf-lib and pdf.js, image tools via the browser's native Canvas API, and everything else with plain JavaScript. Your files or input are read into browser memory, processed, and handed back as a download or copyable result. This page itself is served by a small Laravel route; Laravel never sees your files either. The only backend in use is Supabase, and only for two optional things: signing in with a magic link, and — only if you're signed in — a log of which tool you ran and when. Honest limits worth knowing: Compress PDF flattens each page to a re-encoded image (great for scans, not ideal if you need selectable text after); HEIC conversion uses a small on-demand converter when the browser cannot decode HEIC natively (Safari often works without it); Fill PDF Form is best-effort for simple AcroForm fields, not a full Adobe Forms replacement; and Word/Excel/PowerPoint ⇄ PDF genuinely needs a server-side engine, so it isn't included — this build only ships tools that can honestly run client-side.
Questions people actually ask
What happens when someone scans it?
Their phone's camera app recognizes the vCard format and offers to save it directly as a new contact, with the fields already filled in.
What fields are included?
Name (required), plus phone, email, and organization if you fill them in — each optional field is simply left out of the vCard if blank.
Is this a standard format?
Yes — vCard 3.0, a widely supported contact-card standard that most phones and contact apps already recognize from a scanned QR code.
Can I add multiple phone numbers or emails?
Not in this version — one phone and one email field; for more, edit the downloaded vCard text directly before generating, or use dedicated contact-card software.
What's this useful for?
Business cards, event badges, or an email signature — anywhere someone might want to save your contact details without typing them by hand.
Is my contact information sent anywhere?
No — the QR code is generated entirely in your browser; your details never leave your device.
Can I include a photo in the vCard?
No — this generates a text-only vCard; embedding a photo would make the QR code far denser and harder to scan reliably.
What if a field has a comma or special character?
Enter it normally — the standard vCard fields used here don't require manual escaping for common punctuation.
Is this really free, and is there a file size limit?
Yes — no account, no paywall. Since processing happens in your browser's memory rather than uploading anywhere, the practical limit is your device's available RAM, not a server quota. Very large files (500+ pages) may run slower, especially for Compress and PDF→JPG.
Does anything about my file get sent anywhere?
No. Every tool runs with pdf-lib/pdf.js loaded in this page; your file is read into browser memory and never leaves it. The only network call this app makes for your account is Supabase auth — and that only stores which tool you ran and when, never file content.
Why isn't Word/Excel/PowerPoint → PDF included?
Converting Office formats accurately needs a real rendering engine (what Word or LibreOffice use internally) — no browser library does this reliably. Rather than ship a broken version, it's left out.
Does TechDriven Tools have OCR (text recognition)?
Yes — OCR PDF recognizes text in scanned or photographed pages using Tesseract.js, running entirely on your device, and gives you a searchable PDF or a plain text file. Nothing is uploaded for this either.
Can I use this without an internet connection?
Once the page and its libraries have loaded once, yes — the tools themselves need no network access. Signing in and viewing history do require a connection, since those talk to Supabase.
What happens to the "history" if I sign in?
Only a row per tool run — the tool's name and a timestamp. No filename, no file content, ever. You can see the full list any time via the History button.
Are the non-PDF utilities (password generator, JSON formatter, etc.) private too?
Yes — same rule as the PDF tools. Word Counter, Case Converter, Password Generator, UUID Generator, Base64, Hash Generator, JSON Formatter and JWT Decoder all run with plain JavaScript already loaded in this page; nothing you type or paste is sent anywhere.
vCard QR Code Generator, in depth
Generate a QR code with contact details someone can save directly to their phone by scanning.
Features
Standard vCard Format
Recognized natively by both Android and iOS contact apps.

Why use vCard QR Code Generator
- Add yourself to someone's contacts at a networking event with one scan.
- Put contact details on a business card or badge without a paper handoff.
- Share team contact info at a booth or conference table.
- Avoid manual typos from someone typing your details in by hand.
How it works
Your details are formatted into a standard vCard text block (the same format contact-sharing apps and email programs use for a .vcf file) and encoded into a QR code — when scanned, most phones recognize the format and offer to save it directly as a new contact.
vCard QR vs. WiFi QR
Both generate QR codes carrying structured data a phone recognizes automatically, just for different purposes — contact details here, network credentials for WiFi QR Code Generator. Both work the same underlying way: a specific text format inside the QR code that phones are built to recognize and act on.
Why people search for vCard QR Code Generator
Generate a QR code with contact details someone can save. If you arrived from a comparison article, vCard QR Code Generator is the working utility those guides point at: labeled options, local processing, and a download you can verify.
vCard QR Code Generator sits in our Developer Tools group. The page is built so you can finish the job without creating an account, installing a desktop pack, or sending the payload to an unknown converter API.
Who vCard QR Code Generator is for
- The file or text is sensitive enough that uploading feels wrong.
- A desktop suite is overkill for a one-page or one-photo job.
- You want a second opinion after another converter produced a weird output.
- You need a result now and do not want another account wall.
Recommended workflow
Paste only what you intend to transform → run locally → copy into your editor or terminal → never paste production secrets into random upload sites.
- Open vCard QR Code Generator (also available from category hubs and ⌘K).
- Use the labeled fields or dropzone — options match what vCard QR Code Generator actually does.
- Run the tool and wait for local progress to finish.
- Download or copy the result, then verify on the device where you will share it.
Tips that improve results
- Change one setting at a time when you are comparing quality or layout.
- Keep the original until stakeholders accept the download.
- Rename the output with date + purpose before you attach it to email.
- On phones, plug in power for large PDFs, videos, or spreadsheets.
- Prefer UTF-8 text for developer converters; weird encodings cause most “broken” results.
- Start with a non-sensitive sample so you learn the options before the real file.
Common mistakes with vCard QR Code Generator
- Expecting vCard QR Code Generator to replace a full desktop suite for every edge-case format.
- Skipping a sample check and discovering a bad export after the original was deleted.
- Chaining many lossy image/PDF steps when one careful pass would have been enough.
- Using a public computer without clearing downloads afterward.
Privacy model
Processing for vCard QR Code Generator is designed to stay in the browser. Laravel serves the page; it does not receive your file bytes for conversion. Optional Supabase auth only stores which tool you ran and when — never filenames or contents.

Will vCard QR Code Generator work on my phone?
