# Using Document QR Codes

You can be able to add QR codes to your document templates, allowing anybody with an electronic or printed copy of the document to verify its authenticity by scanning an embedded QR code on the document.

## Adding a QR Code

To add a QR code to your document, you will need to use [context tags](/managing-services/context-tags.md). The steps below outline the process

* Open the editor for your document template
* Click on the "Use Context Tags" button

* The QR code tag will be copied to your layout and you can now adjust its position using HTML and CSS.

The QR Scan layout is a design layout that allows you to dictate and design the page users will be directed to when they scan any QR codes present in your document.

To design the layout:
