I like when there's a qr code that allows you to order and pay without needing to wait for a waiter. A qr code where it just links to a pdf of a menu that they didn't want to print sucks.
PDF is at least kind of permanent. Most restaurants that have qr code set up usually have "surge pricing" that allows them to change their prices on a whim.
Not much of a challange to have a webserver point to another pdf when some condition is fulfilled.
You can just generate a PDF on demand. There isn't much permanent about them at all.
You can easily download a pdf.
