        In the previous post 3D QR code attempt 2 I succeeded in getting a QR code into Revit and was able to scan it there & also export to 3D PDF to scan there too. Unfortunately the process that was used required using an Autodesk free trial (30 day) programme Formit for conversion from TinkerCad
