How to insert a QR code onto a letter/document

 This lesson will show you how to add a QR code to a letter/document etc

I am working in Paintshop pro-2020 for graphics. Word and Word pad everything else. My operating system is Windows 10.

If you right-click on any graphic and choose the "open link in new tab" option, it will open up a large 'easier to view' image.

If you don't know how to make a QR code go here for a lesson.

This tutorial - as all of my tutorials - assumes the reader is an absolute beginner. I am going to walk you through every step using words and screenshots.
Assuming you have already got a QR code. We need to attach that to the letter/document. In this instance, I am going to show you how to add it to a letter, however, the procedure is the same.

This is the letter I am using. Go ahead and open up the letter you want to add your QR code to. Don't worry, this is much easier than you may think.

OK, now we're going to go and find your QR code.

Find the insert button in your programme. I'm using Word but whatever programme you're using you should have an insert button. See the picture below.

Step 1. Click on the Insert tab.

Step 2. Click on the picture tab.

Step 3. Click on "This device"

See the image below for the next step.

Find the QR code you want to add to your letter and left-click on it. Don't worry where it lands on your page, we're going to put that where we want it.

All around your QR code you'll see little circles. You want to grab any corner and start dragging it inwards - to make it smaller. If you drop the circle, pick it up again. Don't let it intimidate you.

OK, we're now going to manipulate it so it goes where we want it to. 

Don't worry about where it is right now. In a minute you'll be able to put it wherever you want.

See the instructions on the image above.

1. Click on the QR code and you'll see a little box appear in the right-hand corner. Click on the box.

2. Choose the option to have the code go anywhere between writing. You can choose to have it behind writing but there's not much point in that with a QR code.

3. Choose "fix position on page"

Then do ahead and grab your QR code in order to place it wherever you want. 

I normally place mine at the bottom of my letter but it's your letter so your choice. When you have the QR code at what you think is the right size, go ahead and scan it to make sure it's working. 

Note: if you don't have a QR code scanning app, you can also just point the camera of your phone at the code and it'll ask you if you wish to visit whatever website you want your listener to go to. Of course in my letter, I'm pointing them to the online Bible studies.

I hope this lesson has helped you get to grip on inserting a QR code into a letter/document.

How to save a document into a folder.

 This tutorial will show you how to save a document into a folder. 

Disclaimers:

All tutorials on my blog are my own. This is the way I do my tutorials. You may well do them differently. Any resemblance to another tutorial on the world wide web is purely coincidental.

Okay, with that out of the way, lets get going.

I am working in Paintshop pro 2020 for graphics. Word and Word pad everything else. My operating system is Windows 10.

If you right click on any graphic and choose the "open link in new tab" option, it will open up a large 'easier to view' image.

This tutorial [as are all of my tutorials] is very detailed with many graphics designed to help the absolute beginner.

I am going to save an already completed document into an already made and saved folder.  

Note: If you want to know how to make a document, that's in another lesson.

Let's go and save our document into our already prepared folder. If you don't know how to make a folder please  GO HERE  [Link opens in a new window] to follow the tutorial. Once done, just close off that window and you will be back here.

In the above picture, is my already written document ready to save. Let's walk through how to save yours.

Go over to your "file" command and left click on your mouse. See graphic below. 

Now you'll see something similar to what I have in the screen shot below.

Left click on the "save as" command. See black arrow above. 

Then when the new window opens [see screen shot below] left click on browse [see arrow]

As you can see in the image below, clicking on "browse" opens up a new small window. Left click on "this pc". Find your documents folder and left click on that.

When the next window opens you will have the view below. There's my folder that I made when we did the "make a folder and subfolders" tutorial

We're nearly done now. Well done for hanging in there.

Inside that I have 3 previously made subfolders. I'm going to choose the "Field service letters" folder as I'm saving a letter.  

Go ahead and open the folder you want. Name your document [see No.1] Click save [No.2]

 And there you have it!
